Johnny Boy

What ever happened to the days
We were in love like one of those Shakespeare plays
We’d buy that house up on the hill
Keep the flowers you gave me on the window sill
But you left me hangin on the end of the line
Goin hello, hello, where’s my Johnny boy?
Promised me forever everything would be fine
Oh hello, hello, where’s my Johnny boy
You didn’t give a reason
You didn’t tell me why
No you just left me hangin on the end of the line
Goin, hello, hello, where’s my Johnny boy?
Since you’ve been gone i’ve been so low
Just sittin around staring at the telephone
Cause I bought that house up on the hill
There’s nothing but dust on empty window sills
You left me hangin on the end of the line
Goin hello, hello, where’s my Johnny boy?
Promised me forever everything would be fine
Oh hello, hello, where’s my Johnny boy
You didn’t give a reason
You didn’t tell me why
No you just left me hangin on the end of the line
Goin, hello, hello, where’s my Johnny boy?
This ain’t my home sweet home
Loving you is all I know
This ain’t my home sweet home
No this can’t be home sweet home
Loving you is all I know
This ain’t my home sweet home
You just left me hangin on the end of the line
Goin hello, hello, where’s my Johnny boy?
Promised me forever everything would be fine
Oh hello, hello, where’s my Johnny boy
You didn’t give a reason
You didn’t tell me why
No you just left me hangin on the end of the line
Goin, hello, hello, where’s my Johnny boy?
