Song: Don't Cry Joni Artist: Conway Twitty & Joni Lee
Joni was the girl who lived next door I've known her, I guess, ten years or more Joni wrote me a note one day And this is what she had to say
Jimmy please say you'll wait for me I'll grow up some day you'll see Saving all my kisses just for you Signed with love forever true
Slowly I read her note once more I went over to the house next door Her teardrops fell like rain that day When I told Joni what I had to say
Joni Joni please don't cry You'll forget me by and by You're just 15 I'm 22 And Joni I just can't wait for you
/>
Soon I left our little hometown Got me a job and try to settle down But these words kept pounding my memory The words that Joni said to me
Jimmy please say you'll wait for me I'll grow up some day you'll see Saving all my kisses just for you Signed with love forever true
I packed my clothes and I caught a plane I had to see Joni I had to explain How my heart was filled with her memories And ask my Joni if she'd marry me
I run all the way to the house next door Things weren't like they were before My teardrops fell like rain that day When I heard what Joni had to say
Jimmy Jimmy please don't cry You'll forget me by and by It's been five years since you've been gone Jimmy I've married your best friend Jone
