Jim Sullivan - Johnny lyrics

See the people run and gather How something high has caught their eye Frightened with the sound of something the speaker stands to wave and cry He says, "Hear ye! Hear ye! Faithful prophets! Now something dreadful has occurred And you waste no time to heed my warning Little Johnny thinks he is a bird" Johnny come down, come down from the sky Johnny come down, you're flying too high Johnny yells from lofty posture sitting high above the ground "I won't drink your muddy water you try your best and I won't come down" "Cause I can see your picture painted and true it's part of life I'm sure And that don't mean I've got to like it and when the air is clean and pure" Johnny come down, come down from the sky Johnny come down, you're flying too high "Johnny tell us tell us will you just what secret have you found? Do you really know the answer how to sail above the ground?" "'Cause half is part of all an answer and it's better sure than none at all And I can't love no hand that strikes me If I shot him down I'd surely fall" Johnny come down, come down from the sky Johnny come down, you're flying too high
