Lyrics:

Somewhere on the waterfrontbr /Johnny's hiding with a gunbr /Swears he'll kill any man that tells his storybr /He's not sorry for what he's donebr /br /He broke into a drugstorebr /To cure his daily needbr /He didn't mean to shoot the guardbr /But he was blinded by the greedbr /br /Oh johnnybr /br /You see that nun, she's his sisterbr /She doesn't know that he's gone badbr /When they told it to his fatherbr /It drove the old man madbr /br /Just as his mother warned himbr /From her dying bedbr /It's alright to lose your heartbr /But never lose your headbr /br /Oh johnnybr /br /Now the cops have got him surroundedbr /And he doesn't stand a hopebr /He wonders how he could be in so much troublebr /Over just a little dopebr /br /Five to one he gets awaybr /That's the odds I'm going to givebr /Five to four they blast him awaybr /Three to one he's going to livebr /br /Oh johnnybr /br /Back in the alley where he was slainbr /I thought I heard something movebr /Beside the trash can lay a heart and chainbr /The picture had been removedbr /br /Just another juiced up junkiebr /Looking for a bedbr /It's alright to lose your heartbr /But never lose your headbr /br /Oh johnny
