Artist/Band: Waterboys
Lyrics for Song: A girl called Johnny
Lyrics for Album: Waterboys [1983]



A girl called Johnny :: Waterboys



I remember Johnny - hey!

Johnny come lately

I remember her shoes like a ballerina

A girl called Johnny who

changed her name when she

discovered her choice was to

change or to be changed



I remember a girl called Johnny

black as hell and white as a ghost

"Don't talk about life or death"

she said "I've had enough of both"

A girl called Johnny who was not scared

they'd have torn her to pieces but

who would dare?



I remember a girl called Johnny

the train came to town, boy she got on it

with no looking back, with not a word

If she said goodbye, well I never heard

but the noise goes on

the noise, the jazz

and the truth is in somebody else's hands

and the house that a girl called johnny built

is now just ashes and sand
