lyrics

Johnny come down to the riverside
Johnny come swimmin’ with me
Johnny come down to the riverside
Johnny – I wanna see
*****
See things that hang in the breeze
And in the shadows of the trees
And down inside your dungarees
Johnny - oh Johnny
*****
Johnny will you be at the mall tonight
Down by the arcade
If you stop and talk to me
Will I be afraid
Afraid of what my face will show
Afraid you’ll see my heart a - glow
With passion like a body blow
When I’m near to you
*****
Why do I want, what I want, I don’t know, don’t know
Why oh why do I need it so, so, so
Is it wrong or right
Keeps me up at night
Johnny, oh Johnny, do you know
*****
Cm Fm
If just once desire could be
Sung out clear and true
If just once you’d look at me
The way I look at you
The way I look at you
*****
Johnny come to my house tonight
My folks will be away
Maybe I can tell to you
What I want to say
Johnny if you stood by my side
I’d no longer have to hide
My whole world would open wide
Every single day
