johnny's speech - burgess meredith lyrics
Loading...
[johnny, spoken]
think of it—
there you stand
like a picture in that history book i read
minny belle said i’d see you so
and now at last i have
your hand uplifted with a torch
saying goodbye to us
good luck, and bless you, every one
and god bless you, oh mother of liberty!
that’s what you are
a sort of mother to us all
and we your sons
i raise my hand
and swear a bible oath
that johnny johnson—
that’s my name—
i swear that neither by look or thought or word
will i fail either you or minny belle
and i will keep my character clean
and come back as i went—
without a smirch
i swear, i swear
star light, star bright
goodbye, minny belle, my darling
i sleep with your dear picture ‘gainst my heart
