Dear John ( I Sent Your Saddle Home) by John Prine
(vocals by John Prine)
When I woke up this morning
There was a note upon my door
Saying " Don't make me no coffee, Babe
Cause I won't be back no more"
And that's all she wrote
"Dear John", I sent your saddle home"
Now Jonah got along in the belly of a whale
Daniel in the lion's den
I know a guy that didn't try to get along
And he won't get a chance again
That's all she wrote
"Dear John", I sent your saddle home"
She didn't forward no address
No she never said goodbye
All she said was "If you get blue
Just hang your little head and cry"
