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 son Her only hope 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: Oh Johnny you broke my heart Oh Johnny you made me 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 How can you do something Like this to me She said I took you To the best schools In the country boy Spent my last dime on you Johnny 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 How can you do something Like that to me Oh she cried
