Johnny Day - Rolf Harris

Young Johnny Day, Day

Johnny

Crouching unarmed and completely alone

Just a hundred yards away

His enemy is set to slay

Johnny Day, Day

Johnny Day

Three spears he holds and woomera too

And there’s a blood lust burning

Every time his eyes are turning

To Johnny Day, Day

Johnny Day

Sad the tribe as they for the death

Of young Johnny Day, Day

Johnny

She was to marry this much older man

But all the love she had was for the

Tall and handsome lad they call

Johnny Day, Day

Johnny Day

Three weeks have passed since

The pair ran away

But they were both dragged back

When all the hunters set to trackin'

Young Johnny Day, Day

Johnny Day

Silent now as they wait for the death

Of Young Johnny Day, Day

Johnny

Johnny was brought before the council

Of elders and he heard them say

We give the older men

Three spears against you

Thrown when the sun stands high today

Hah!

is the signal.

The enemy leaps

The flashin' spear is hurled and then

The second and the third towards

Johnny Day, Day

Johnny Day

Johnny dives flat back and rolls to his right

And them it’s jump, turn, twist, hah!

And all the spears have missed

Johnny Day, Day

Johnny Day

The tribe go wild as they welcomed

To life again

Johnny Day, Day

Johnny

Johnny is livin' again

Johnny Day, Day

Johnny is livin' again
