- (continued from previous page)Will I e'er see tomorrow,
O Jonny lovely Jonny
If you knew all I know.I have sweethearts in plenty
Come to me and from me
They all say they love me
But all is in vain:
From amongst a great many
I love my own Jonny,
And I'll n'er wed another
Till he comes back again.If I was a - waking,
And my coffin a - making,
And me and my bearers
Going down to the grave
And my true love to hear it
I am sure he'd be a griever,
One kiss from his sweet lips(continues on next page)- Collector
