Johnny the Horse
Johnny the Horse was kicked to death
He died for entertainment
Would you believe he came out well
He had a bright inquiring mind
His family knew that he'd go far
If he applied his time
But he started out standing on corners
And talking out loud, too loud
You see, he couldn't believe in himself or the world
Or anything he heard
It seems a million years ago
That he left his life behind
The moment came for him to go
He said goodbye to his wife and child
Started out walking he never looked back
There was too much pain
Between Glasgow and London
One hot summer he forgot his name
Can you remember his name?
Doodlo-dup-dup-dup
Doodlo-doodlo-doodlo, woo!
Can you remember his name?
Doodlo-dup-dup-dup
Doodlo-doodlo-doodlo, woo!
Can you remember?
He started out standing on corners
And talking out loud, too loud
You see, he couldn't believe in himself or the world
Or anything he heard
Can you remember his name?
Doodlo-dup-dup-dup
Doodlo-doodlo-doodlo, woo!
Can you remember his name?
Doodlo-dup-dup-dup
Doodlo-doodlo-doodlo, woo!
Will you remember?
Will you remember his name?
Doodlo-dup-dup-dup
Doodlo-doodlo-doodlo, woo!
Can you remember?
Doodlo-dup-dup-dup
Doodlo-doodlo-doodlo, woo!
He took his battered bones and his broken dreams
To Regents Park at sunset
Will you remember?
Doodlo-dup-dup-dup
Doodlo-doodlo-doodlo, woo!
Will you remember his name?
Doodlo-dup-dup-dup
Doodlo-doodlo-doodlo, woo!
Will you remember?
Doodlo-dup-dup-dup
Doodlo-doodlo-doodlo, woo!
Will you remember?
Doodlo-dup-dup-dup
Doodlo-doodlo-doodlo, woo!!
