Sally, Don't You Grieve Lyrics - My Dusty Road - Woody Guthrie

I just got my army call 

And I run down to the army hall. 

Sally come a-runnin' like a cannonball 

And I told her not to grieve after me. 

It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve 

It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve 

It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve 

And I told her not to grieve after me. 

I'm a-gonna cross that ocean wide 

Army rifle by my side 

When Hitler's beat you can be my bride 

But I told her not to grieve after me.

I'm a-gonna jump in a flyin' machine 

A-loaded full of this-a TNT 

Stop old Hitler what I mean 

And I told her not to grieve after me. 

A souvenir I'll send to you 

Send Hirohito and Hitler, too 

That's about all one feller can do 

But I told her not to grieve after me. 

Sally, get a job and save your pay 

Work your best for the U.S.A. 

Write me a letter 'bout ever' day 

And I told her not to grieve after me.
