Johnny Was Lyrics

Cause her son had been shot down in the street and died

From a stray bullet

Woman hold her head and cry

Accompanying her was a passerby

Who saw the woman cry

Wondering can she work it out

Now she knows that the wages of sin is death

The gift of God is life

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Johnny was a good man

oh yeah

Woman hold her head and cry

Cause her son had been shot down in the street and died

Just because of the system

Woman hold her head and cry

Comforting her I was passing by

And I saw the woman cry

She cried, oh, oh, oh, oh

Johnny was a good man

Never did a thing wrong

Take it down

Johnny went out on a Saturday night

Never hurt anybody never started no bar room fight

Johnny never did nobody no wrong

Never hurt anybody never hurt anybody

Johnny was a good man

Johnny, Johnny, Johnny...

Johnny was a good man

[Repeat]

In a top floor flat in the middle of the night

There's a man with rifle and Johnny in his sight,

I said oh no, we can't let that kind of thing happen here no more

Oh no

Johnny, Johnny, Johnny...

A single shot rings out in a Belfast night and I said oh

Johnny was a good man

Can a woman's tender care

Cease towards the child she bears

Johnny [Repeat]
