[Chorus] Say hey Johnny Boy, The battle call United we stand, Divided we fall Together we are what we cant be alone We came to this country you made it our home [Verse 1] This man so humble, this man so brave A legend to many, he fought to his grave Saved family and friends from the hardship and horror In a land of depression he gave hope for tomorrow Say Johnny Me Boy, This ones for you With the strength of many and the courage of few To what do we owe this man whos fight Was for the masses, he gave his life [Chorus] [Verse 2] A friend to the locals who dabbled in crime Hed give you a job and hed give you his time He wasnt a crook but he couldnt be conned John knew the difference between right and wrong Say Johnny Me Boy, You live no longer Others forgotton, your memories stronger Lets drink to the causes in your life Your family, your friends, the union, your wife [Chorus 2X] [Bridge] And the boys on the docks needed John for sure When they came to this country he opened the door He said men Ill tell ya, They dont like our kind Though it starts with a fist, it must end with your mind [Chorus]
johnny, boy, john, hed, forgotton
