Bye Bye Johnny
Yesterday it was you and me and some other people on a party
But who could know it was the last time?
We got drunk and sang together
Chasing girls, we should've lived forever
You didn't even get home
Bye-bye, Johnny, bye-bye
It's not your fault that you died
But I can't help it
I've got to ask a reason why you
Good old Johnny did die, it's no wonder
So many of your friends did cry
There's no meaning in why you should say bye-bye
Now today when you are gone
I'm still drunk but I can't find a reason
Why you had to leave so soon?
Jealousy is a bad disease
Made you a loser, you were a user
Can't you come back to us, please?
Bye-bye, Johnny, bye-bye
It's not your fault that you died
But I can't help it
I've got to ask a reason why you
Good old Johnny did die, it's no wonder
So many of your friends did cry
There's no meaning in why you should say bye-bye
You were stabbed in the back
On a step in a backstreet alley
The girl was engaged, but not with you
Now you're hiding in death valley
Bye-bye, Johnny, bye-bye
It's not your fault that you died
But I can't help it
I've got to ask a reason why you
Good old Johnny did die, it's no wonder
So many of your friends did cry
There's no meaning in why you should say bye-bye
Bye-bye, Johnny, bye-bye
It's not your fault that you died
But I can't help it
I've got to ask a reason why you
Good old Johnny did die, it's no wonder
So many of your friends did cry
There's no meaning in why you should say bye-bye
But who could know it was the last time?
We got drunk and sang together
Chasing girls, we should've lived forever
You didn't even get home
Bye-bye, Johnny, bye-bye
It's not your fault that you died
But I can't help it
I've got to ask a reason why you
Good old Johnny did die, it's no wonder
So many of your friends did cry
There's no meaning in why you should say bye-bye
Now today when you are gone
I'm still drunk but I can't find a reason
Why you had to leave so soon?
Jealousy is a bad disease
Made you a loser, you were a user
Can't you come back to us, please?
Bye-bye, Johnny, bye-bye
It's not your fault that you died
But I can't help it
I've got to ask a reason why you
Good old Johnny did die, it's no wonder
So many of your friends did cry
There's no meaning in why you should say bye-bye
You were stabbed in the back
On a step in a backstreet alley
The girl was engaged, but not with you
Now you're hiding in death valley
Bye-bye, Johnny, bye-bye
It's not your fault that you died
But I can't help it
I've got to ask a reason why you
Good old Johnny did die, it's no wonder
So many of your friends did cry
There's no meaning in why you should say bye-bye
Bye-bye, Johnny, bye-bye
It's not your fault that you died
But I can't help it
I've got to ask a reason why you
Good old Johnny did die, it's no wonder
So many of your friends did cry
There's no meaning in why you should say bye-bye
