G                        
 
little johnny started out runnin'

                  C
down, down to the water's edge

G                    
took a dive in the - wild river

                   C
took a dive from a rocky ledge

G                   
way down in the dark water

                      C
long-time-gone, momma says "oh no!"

G                                C
just then his - little head pops up . .

G
whaddaya know

Am   C               G
oh, oh, he came up smilin'

Am   C               G
oh, oh, he came up smilin'


little johnny - bought a ticket
into a haunted house did go
way down in a -dark dungeon
way down in a witches throat
momma worryin', daddy worryin'
where did my boy go?
just then his - little head pops up . .
whaddaya know

oh, oh, he came up smilin'
oh, oh, he came up smilin'
 
little johnny started out runnin'
down, down, to the water's edge
took a dive in the wild river
took a dive from a rocky ledge
way down in the dark water,
long time gone momma says "oh no!"
just then his little head pops up . .
whaddaya know!
