C
When I woke up this morning
C
There was a note upon my door
C
Saying " Don't make me no coffee, Babe
C
Cause I won't be back no more"


C
And that's all she wrote
C
"Dear John", I sent your saddle home"


C
Now Jonah got along in the belly of a whale
C
Daniel in the lion's den
C
I know a guy that didn't try to get along
C
And he won't get a chance again


C
That's all she wrote
C
"Dear John", I sent your saddle home"

C
She didn't forward no address
C
No she never said goodbye
C
All she said was "If you get blue
C
Just hang your little head and cry"


C
That's all she wrote
C
"Dear John", I sent your saddle home"


C
Now my gal's short and stubby
C
She's mean as she can be
C
If that little old gal of mine
C
Ever gets a hold of me


C
That's all she wrote
C
"Dear John", I fetched your saddle home"


C
Went down to the bank this morning
C
The cashier said with a grin
C
I'm sorry for you Little John
C
But your wife has done been in


C
That's all she wrote
C
"Dear John", I sent your saddle home"


C
That's all she wrote
C
"Dear John", I sent your saddle home"
