Mr. & Mrs Used To Be (1965)
Ernest Tubb & Loretta Lynn with the song 'A Dear John Letter'. This song was a big hit for Ferlin Huskey & Jean Shepard.
Lyric:
Dear John oh how I hate to write
Dear John I must let you know tonight
That my love for you has died away like grass upon a lawn
And tonight I wed another dear John
I was overseas in battle when the mail caught up with me
And they handed me a letter why I was happy as could be
For the fighting was all over and the battle had been won
Then I opened up the letter and it started Dear John
Dear John oh how I hate to write
Dear John I must let you know tonight
That my love for you has died away like grass upon a lawn
And tonight I wed another dear John
Will you please send back my picture my husband wants it now
And when I tell you who I'm marrying why you won't care dear anyhow
Now the ceremony has started and I'll wed your brother Don
Will you wish us happiness forever dear John
And tonight I wed another dear John
God Loretta is so beautiful, and could sing anything and it would be great. I love u Loretta all 50 years of you honey, hope you and Miranda win the Cma Musical Event of The Year tonight.
