A Girl Called Johnny (2002 Remaster)

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 please about life and death

She'd say i've had enough of both

A girl called Johnny who was not scared

They would 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

Without looking back,barely 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 so much

Ashes and sand
