Johnny Head-In-Air

As he trudged along to school

It was always Johnny’s rule

To be looking at the sky

And the clouds that floated by

Just before him there did lay

In his in his in his way

Johnny never thought about

So that everyone cried out

Well look at Johnny Johnny there

Little Johnny Johnny Head-In-Air

Running in Johnny’s way

Came a little dog one day

Johnny’s eyes were still astray

In the sky every day

And he never heard them cry

Johnny mind the dog is nigh

Down they fell with such a thump

Johnny and dog in a lump

Once with head as high as ever

Johnny walked beside the river

Johnny watched the swallows trying

Which was the cleverest at flying

Oh what fun oh what fun

Johnny watched the bright round sun

Going in and coming out

That was all he thought about

So he strode on only think

To the river’s river’s very brink

Where the bank was high and steep

And the water water very deep

And the fishes in a row

Stared to see him coming coming so

One more step oh sad to tell

Headlong in Johnny fell

Here are the fishes in dismay

Wagged their tails and ran away

Here lay Johnny on his face

With his little red writing case

And the fishes one two three

Came back again you see

Up they came a moment after

To see Johnny in the here and after

Each popped up his little head

To tease poor Johnny who was dead

Yeah each popped up his little head

To tease poor Johnny who was dead
