Johnny - Lucky Dube

Johnny was a good boy

According to his mother

But when she wasn' t looking yeah

Johnny became a bad boy

He got into drugs yeah

Oh poor Johnny

One day he double-crossed

And it cost him his life

She couldn' t believe it

When she saw him lying

On the ground

In a pool of blood yeah

Her only son

Her only hope yeah!

Oh Johnny

With her hands above her head

She cried Johnny Johnny

How can you do something

Like that to me Oh she cried

And said

Oh Johnny you broke my heart

Oh Johnny you made me cry

Her only hope her only boy

Lying on the ground

In a pool of blood

She said Johnny remember

How I raised you boy?

You could have been a doctor

You could have been a teacher

Oh Johnny

With her hands above her head

She cried Johnny

How can you do something

Like this to me

She said I took you

To the best schools

In the country boy

Spent my last dime on you

Johnny

Thought you would be

My shoulder

To cry on Johnny

Her only boy her only son

Lying on the ground

In a pool of blood

She couldn' t hold back

Her tears

Oh Johnny

With her hands above her head

She cried Johnny Johnny

How can you do something

Like that to me

Oh she cried
