Cathal Smyth - Johnny the Horse lyrics

[Intro] Johnny the Horse was kicked to d**h He died for entertainment [Verse] Would you believe he came out well He had a bright and 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 He started out walking He never looked back, there was too much pain Between Glasgow and London One hot summer, he forgot his name [Chorus] Can you remember his name? Doodley-doo-doo-doo, doodley-doodley-doo-woooh Can you remember his name? Doodley-doo-doo-doo, doodley-doodley-doo-woooh Can you remember? [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] Can you remember his name? Doodley-doo-doo-doo, doodley-doodley-doo-woooh Can you remember his name? Doodley-doo-doo-doo, doodley-doodley-doo-woooh Will you remember? Will you remember his name? Doodley-doo-doo-doo, doodley-doodley-doo-woooh Can you remember? Doodley-doo-doo-doo, doodley-doodley-doo-woooh [Bridge] He took his battered bones and his broken bones To Regent's Park at sunset [Chorus] Will you remember? Doodley-doo-doo-doo, doodley-doodley-doo-woooh Will you remember his name? Doodley-doo-doo-doo, doodley-doodley-doo-woooh Will you remember? Doodley-doo-doo-doo, doodley-doodley-doo-woooh Will you remember? Doodley-doo-doo-doo, doodley-doodley-doo-woooh [Outro] Johnny the Horse was kicked to d**h He died for entertainment
