Chorus:
CSay hey Johnny boy, the bGattle call
CDivided we stand, unGited we fall
CTogether we are what we cGan't be alone
CWe came to this country you mDade it our home
Verse 1:
CThis man so humble, tGhis man so brave
CA legend to many, he fGought to his grave
CSaved family and friends from the hGardship and horror
CIn a land of depression he gave Dhope for tomorrow
CSay hey Johnny, thGis one's for you
CWith the strength of many and the cGourage of a few
CTo what do we owe this Gman who's fight
CWas for the masses he gDave his life
Chorus: Play like other chorus
Say hey Johnny, the battle call
United we stand, divided we fall
Together we are what we can't be alone
We came to this country, you made it our home
Verse 2: Play like other verse
A friend to the locals who dabbled in crime
He'd give you a job and he'd give you his time
He wasn't a crook but he couldn't be conned
John knew the difference between right and wrong
Say Johnny me boy, you live no longer
Other's forgotten, your memories stronger
Let's drink to the causes in your life
Your family, your friends, the union, your wife
Chorus: It's played x2, the first time with no guitar, the second time with
Verse 3: Just like the others
And the boys on the docks needed John for sure
When they came to this country he opened the door
He said men I'll tell ya, they don't like our kind
Though it starts with a fist it must end with your mind
Play the chorus one more time
Ending: C C G C
