Letra de The Letter (That Johnny Walker Read)

[Verse 1]
Johnny Walker sat
at a table in a bar
Minding his own affairs
Drinking his namesake over the rocks
He was drunk, too drunk to care
When a girl in the bar walked up beside him
And this is what she said
She said, "A woman came by with a letter for you
And this is what the letter said"
[Chorus]
Dear, John, please, Johnny, please come home
I need your love and the kids, they've gotta be fed
And John, if you don't hurry back, I'll be gone
Yes, that's what the letter said, the letter that Johnny Walker read
[Verse 2]
Then John, he got up from the table
Slowly, so slowly, he walked outside
He was thinking of his wife and little children back at home
And how his drinking had ruined their lives
Then John, he stared off, off into that street light
And a vision filled his poor, poor heart with dread
For you see, folks, it was him lying drunk there in the gutter, clutching in his little ol' hand
The letter that Johnny Walker read, and this is what it said
[Chorus]
Dear, John, please, Johnny, please come home
Mm, I need your love and the kids, they've gotta be fed
And John, if you don't hurry back, I'll be gone
Yes, that's what the letter said, the letter that Johnny Walker read
Dear, John, please, Johnny, please come home
I need your love and the kids, they've gotta be fed
And John, if you don't hurry back, I'll be gone
Yes, that's what the letter said, the letter that Johnny Walker read
[Outro]
Yes, that's what the letter said, the letter that Johnny Walker read
Yes, that's what the letter said, the letter that Johnny Walker read
