Johnny Boy Theme

Your time is here, get up, my boy
 For the sails are hoisted high
 I do think, you want to go with us
 Far away on our ship
 You're old enough, if you want
 Then come, but quickly, we're on our way
 Boy, hurry up
 Because dark clouds fill the sky
 Johnny boy, Johnny boy
 We're bound for stormy weather
 Johnny boy, Johnny boy
 Better wish your lads farewell
 Somewhere out, far away
 We're sailing on together
 Oh Johnny my, we are leaving tonight
 Johnny, say goodbye
 Fetch the sails, fasten the load
 Because something is brewing
 Hold strong, my boy, its the Heaven will
 The sea will make you a man today
 When the dance begins, tie yourself to the mast
 And don't forget to pray
 There is no return, if the Lord so wills
 Then he will spare you
 Johnny boy, Johnny boy
 We're bound for stormy weather
 Johnny boy, Johnny boy
 Better wish your lads farewell
 And back home, far away
 Our loves will grief together
 Oh Johnny my, it's live and let die
 Johnny say goodbye
 A Hellish night with fear of death
 The sea is playing with it
 And suddenly a rock appears
 With no way to escape it
 When the storm calms down, a ship can be seen
 It tips slowly towards the stern
 Only a boy sits at the mast
 No one else on deck
 With the first ray that breaks through the night
 White sails, full speed
 A ship is coming, hold on my boy
 Hold on, rescue approaches
 Only a mast juts out, from the rocky reef
 Johnny moves no more
 He is brought home
 For the rest of the crew the coffins are empty
 Johnny boy, Johnny boy
 You were bound for stormy weather
 Johnny boy, Johnny boy
 May the angels guide you home
 Somewhere out faraway
 You lost your lives together
 You had to die, the only heaven knows why
 John, my boy, goodbye
 Johnny boy, Johnny boy
 You were bound for stormy weather
 Johnny boy, Johnny boy
 May the angels guide you home
 Somewhere out faraway
 You lost your lives together
 You had to die only heaven knows why
 John, my boy, goodbye
 John, my boy, goodbye
