Johnny can't read, |
|
Johnny can't write |
|
Johnny ain't have much of a life |
|
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah |
|
His father told him to be a marine |
|
To fight a war he did not believe in |
|
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah |
|
Johnny told his father, he just could not |
|
Don't wanna live his life that way |
|
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah |
|
Johnny always thought there was something wrong |
|
Day by day singing his fathers song |
|
Johnny don't want to live his life that way |
|
Now day to day, dying the military way |
|
Johnny was rough, |
|
Johnny was tough |
|
But not tough enough to just say no |
|
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah |
|
Johnny went down to sign up that day |
|
They sent him down to basic training |
|
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah |
|
Johnny always thought there was something wrong |
|
Day to day singing his fathers song |
|
Johnny don't want to live his life that way |
|
Now day to day, dying the military way |

Johnny went to a foreign land |
|
He died in the hands of a foreign man |
|
We'll always remember |
|
Johnny in his last days |
