Lyrics:
Corporal Clegg had a wooden leg
He won it in the war, in 1944
Corporal Clegg had a medal too
In orange, red, and blue
He found it in the zoo
Corporal Clegg had a wooden leg
He won it in the war, in 1944
Corporal Clegg had a medal too
In orange, red, and blue
He found it in the zoo

He's got friends without no guts, friends that never ache
In New York City, I guess it's cool when it's dark
There's one sure way Johnny you can
lake
He's got friends without no guts, friends that never ache
In New York City, I guess it's cool when it's dark
There's one sure way Johnny you can
A Clydesdale's best friend
"Here's Johnny!" he says, and laughs in his special way
"...Johnny!" he says, you know I love him
"Here's Johnny!" he says,
and he will cut you down
Johnny Blade, Johnny Blade
Life has no meaning, and Death's his only friend
Will fate surprise him, where will he meet his
your friends sleep in boxes while you sleep in chains
Jackknife Johnny, you're a bad jungle monkey
Tool of a dagger's drawn world
Jackknife Johnny
Johnny's daddy was taking him fishin'
When he was eight years old
A little girl came through the front gate
Holdin' a fishin' pole
His dad
and he will cut you down
Johnny Blade, Johnny Blade
Life has no meaning, and Death's his only friend
Will fate surprise him, where will he meet his
Dry your eyes my little friend
Let me take you by the hand
Freddie get ready Rock steady
When Johnny strikes up the band
They'll be rocking in
Dry your eyes my little friend
Let me take you by the hand
Freddie get ready Rock steady
When Johnny strikes up the band
They'll be rocking
her fill
And if I don't take her to the dance next week, Johnny will
I checked and found they're sellin' tickets at five bucks each
And all that
Johnny, be smart (Johnny, Johnny)
Don't give her your heart (Johnny, Johnny)
She'll take it and break it in two
Johnny, be wise (Johnny, Johnny
It's Johnny's birthday
It's Johnny's birthday
And we would like to wish him all the very best
It's Johnny's birthday
It's Johnny's birthday
And the funny thing is they think
They're putting this over on me
I've always been an upstanding citizen
But I am getting fed up now, my friends
And if you don't
This the story of Frankie and Johnny
They were sweethearts forever, and ever, and ever
Ah, yeah, ah, yeah
Frankie and Johnny were sweethearts
Johnny's daddy was taking him fishin'
When he was eight years old
A little girl came through the front gate
Holdin' a fishin' pole
His dad
Johnny likes to drink, Johnny likes to fight
Johnny likes to play guitar all night
Johnny’s got no hope, Johnny’s got no friends Johnny hears them
right in the sky)
Slap a liar in his eye, kick a hole right in the sky
(Testify, testify, kick a hole right in the sky)
Johnny, Johnny, Johnny
I, I, I
Away, away, away rolled the rebel Johnny Yuma
Johnny Yuma was a rebel
He roamed through the west
And Johnny Yuma, the rebel
He wandered alone
a friend
Second time, you do it in a bed
Third time, you can't get enough
And your life gets all fucked up
All fucked up
You're strung out, Johnny
Jimmy and Johnny two friends of mine
Skinheads what they claimed
Outside similarities but they don't feel the same
Johnny thinks Jimmy is a mod
You fought all the way Johnny Reb Johnny Reb
You fought all the way Johnny Reb
Saw you a marchin' with Robert E Lee
You held your head high
