Johanna drove slowly

Into the city

The Hudson River

All filled with snow

She spied the ring

On His Honor's finger

Oh-oh-oh

A thousand years

In one piece of silver

She took it from

His lilywhite hand

Showed no fear

She'd seen the thing

In the Young Men's Wing

At Sloan-Kettering

Look outside

At the raincoats coming, say oh

His Honor drove

Southward seeking exotica

Down to the Pueblo

Huts of New Mexico

Cut his teeth

On turquoise harmonicas

Oh, oh, oh

I saw Johanna

Down in the subway

She took an apartment

In Washington Heights

Half of the ring

Lies here with me

But the other half's

At the bottom of the sea
