[verse 1]
beneath the bare light bulb above
she gazed into the eyes of love
bathed in the dirty neon light
she begged him, “don’t go out tonight
we can work out somehow, maybe
we can find a way out, baby”
he laughed and said “i got to go”
and she cried “no
oh, johnny, johnny, no
oh, johnny, johnny, no”

[verse 2]
her arms were warm and strong and young
“i promise i won’t hurt no one
oh baby, when you gonna learn
them folks uptown got bread to burn?
when they see me flash my knife
they’ll be runnin’ for their lives
thеy won’t give me trouble, yеs i know”
and she cried, “no
oh, johnny, johnny, no
oh, johnny, johnny, no”

[verse 3]
the night passed like a thousand years
the tenement room had cooled her tears
then came a knock upon the door
two men she’d never seen before
“did you know johnny brown, miss?
i hate to tell you this but
has he a relative you know?”
and she cried, “no
oh, johnny, johnny, no
oh, johnny, johnny, no
oh, johnny, johnny, no
oh, johnny, johnny, no”
