Johnny was a good boy
According to his mother
But when she wasn't looking yeah!
Johnny became a bad boy
He got into drugs yeah

Oh poor Johnny
One day he double-crossed
And it cost him his life
She couldn't believe it
When she saw him lying
On the ground
In a pool of blood yeah
Her only hope
Her only son yeah!!
Oh Johnny
With her hands above her head
She cried Johnny Johnny
How can you do something
Like that to me Oh she cried
And said

CHORUS [2x]
Oh Johnny you broke my heart
Oh Johnny you made me cry cry [cry]

Her only hope her only boy
Lying on the ground
In a pool of blood
She said Johnny remember
How I raised you boy?
You could have been a doctor
You could have been a teacher
Oh Johnny
With her hands above her head
She cried Johnny Johnny
How can you do something
Like this to me Johnny Johnny...

She said I took you
To the best schools
In the country boy
Spent my last dime on you
Thought you would be
My shoulder
To cry on Johnny

Her only boy her only son
Lying on the ground
In a pool of blood
She couldn't hold back
Her tears
Oh Johnny
With her hands above her head
She cried Johnny Johnny Johnny
How can you do something
Like that to me
Oh she cried Johnny Johnny

CHORUS [till fade]
