1
Joanie was the girl who lived next door
2
I've known her I guess ten years or more
3
Joanie wrote me a note one day
4
And this is what she had to say.......
5
Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
6
I'll grow up someday you'll see
7
Saving all my kisses just for you
8
Signed with love forever true
9
Slowly I read her note once more
10
I went over to the house next door
11
Her teardrops fell like rain that day
12
When I told Joanie what I had to say
13
Joanie, Joanie please don't cry
14
You'll forget me by and by
15
You're just 15 and I'm 22
16
And Joanie I just can't wait for you
17
Soon I left our little home town
18
Got me a job and tried to settle down
19
But these words kept haunting my memory
20
The words that Joanie said to me
21
Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
22
I'll grow up someday you'll see
23
Saving all my kisses just for you
24
Signed with love forever true
25
I packed my clothes and I caught a plane
26
I had to see Joanie
27
I had to explain
28
How my heart was filled with her memory
29
And ask my Joanie if she'd marry me
30
I ran all the way to the house next door
31
But things weren't like they were before
32
My teardrops fell like rain that day
33
When I heard what Joanie had to say
34
Jimmy, Jimmy please don't cry
35
You'll forget me by and by
36
It's been 5 years since you've been gone
37
Jimmy I married your best friend John
