Guitar Johnny lyrics

He came across the desert and he struggeled through the wind

And at last he crossed the mighty Rio Grande

And everybody trembled when they saw him coming in

Cause though he looked tired he was quit a man

He just sat down with his guitar in his hand

And he said "My name is Johnny Jonathan"

Use your guitar Johnny, play your lonely songs for me

Lighten up this dusty old saloon

Tell us 'bout your journeys over land and over sea

Sing of the tender love beneath the moon

All of us here are as lonely as you

Though we sit together in this stinking crowd

Sing Johnny, sing, let us hear of your blues

Let your voice ring them out all clear and loud

Yes, let your voice ring them out all clear and loud

He sang about the Mexicans, he sang about the war

He sang of every thing from here to there

And suddenly we understood what we where living for

The reason for our living came all clear

The reason for it all was now and there

Use your guitar Johnny, play your lonely songs for me

Let's here all about the things they tell

Fill our hearts with courage for our lonely destinies

Help us living through this lonely hell

Tonight is the night when our lesson is told

And the wine will last until we have to part

Sing Johnny, sing, and before we get old

We will learn how to mend our broken hearts

Oh, use your guitar Johnny, play your lonely songs for me

Lighten up this dusty old saloon

Tell us 'bout your journeys over land and over sea

Sing of the tender love beneath the moon

All of us here are as lonely as you

Though we sit together in this stinking crowd

Sing Johnny, sing, let us here of your blues

Let your voice ring them out all clear and loud

Let your voice ring them out all clear and loud
