Paddy Goes To Holyhead Johnny
A little boy lived in the shadow of an iron might The gates were opened in the morning closed again at night He was playing hunt for treasure in the lonely street And the treasure he looked for was something for to eat
His clothes were torn his face was dirty he was quite forlorn The trucks that gathered up his parents came for them at dawn
Johnny,Johnny,Johnny - sing your song Johnny,Johnny,Johnny, sing your song
There was song and there was dancing a long long time ago Now there´s terror in the waiting for tomorrow
Johnny,Johnny,Johnny - sing your song Johnny,Johnny,Johnny, sing your song
Hunger, sickness fear and hoping lurk behind the gate Sometimes laughter sometimes crying love and sometimes hate Johnny sang his song all day to cover up his fear Johnny sang his song and hoped the outside world would hear
Johnny,Johnny,Johnny - sing your song Johnny,Johnny,Johnny, sing your song
