Don't cry, JoniConway Twitty Joni Lee
*Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
I'll grow up someday you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love forever true
Joni was the girl who lived next door
I've known^{1 her I guess ten years or more
Joni wrote me a note one day
And this is what she had to say
Slowly I read her note once more
Then 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 fifteen and I'm twenty-two
And Joni I just can't wait for you
Soon I left our little hometown
Got me a job and tried to settle2 down
But these words kept haunting3 my memory
The words that Joni said to me
I packed my clothes and I caught the plane
I had to see Joni, I had to explain
How my heart was filled with her memory
And that's my Joni if she'd marry me
I ran all the way to the house next door
But 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 married your best friend John......}

瓊妮，別哭康威崔提 瓊妮李
吉米，請告訴我你會等我
我總有一天會長大
把我全部的吻都留給你
并且簽上永遠的摯愛
瓊妮是位住在隔壁的女生
我認識她大概有十多年了
有一天，瓊妮寫了張紙條給我
這就是她想說的
我第三慢慢的讀著她的紙條
然后，我走到隔壁去
那一天，她淚如雨下
當我告訴瓊妮我心底的話
瓊妮！瓊妮，不要哭
慢慢的，你會把我忘掉
你才十五歲，而我已二十二歲
瓊妮，我沒辦法等你
我非常快離開了大家住的小鎮
找到一份工作，試著安定下來
但那些話語在我記憶里揮之不去
那些瓊妮告訴我的話
我整理了衣物，搭上班機
我得去見瓊妮，向她講解
我的心里縈繞著關于她的回憶
假如瓊妮能嫁給我，那再好不過了
我飛奔到隔壁去
但景物已全非
那一天我的淚水像雨水般滴落
當我聽到瓊妮所說的
吉米！吉米，不要哭
你會慢慢的把我忘掉
你離去將來，已經過了五年
吉米，我已經嫁給你最好的朋友－－約翰
