Johnny — текст песни (Thin Lizzy)

Somewhere on the waterfront

Johnnys hiding with a gun

Swears hell kill any man that tells his story

Hes not sorry for what hes done



He broke into a drugstore

To cure his daily need

He didnt mean to shoot the guard

But he was blinded by the greed



Oh johnny



You see that nun, shes his sister

She doesnt know that hes gone bad

When they told it to his father

It drove the old man mad



Just as his mother warned him

From her dying bed

Its alright to lose your heart

But never lose your head



Oh johnny



Now the cops have got him surrounded

And he doesnt stand a hope

He wonders how he could be in so much trouble

Over just a little dope



Five to one he gets away

Thats the odds Im going to give

Five to four they blast him away

Three to one hes going to live



Oh johnny



Back in the alley where he was slain

I thought I heard something move

Beside the trash can lay a heart and chain

The picture had been removed



Just another juiced up junkie

Looking for a bed

Its alright to lose your heart

But never lose your head



Oh johnny
