Johnny Willow - Fred Darian[00:00:00]

Johnny willow was a soldier[00:00:04]

In the us infantry[00:00:06]

And they sent him[00:00:08]

Off to battle in 1943[00:00:09]

Now johnny had a girl back home[00:00:15]

Her name was jenny may[00:00:17]

And he made a solemn promise[00:00:19]

That he'd write to her each day[00:00:21]

Was early monday morning[00:00:25]

And the sun began to shine[00:00:27]

And johnny thought he'd rest a while[00:00:29]

And drop his girl a line[00:00:31]

He took his pen and began to write[00:00:33]

My dearest darling may[00:00:35]

And a shot rang out and he turned around[00:00:37]

And he heard somebody say[00:00:39]

The enemy's coming up the hill[00:00:41]

There's a thousand if there's one[00:00:43]

A meaner bunch you've never seen[00:00:45]

Come on we better run[00:00:47]

But johnny jumped out to his feet[00:00:49]

He held the letter tight[00:00:52]

Come on you dog faced soldiers[00:00:54]

We're gonna stay and fight[00:00:56]

Well he dropped his pen[00:00:57]

And he grabbed his gun[00:00:59]

And he said I'll show you[00:01:00]

How to get them on the run[00:01:01]

Then he started in a-running[00:01:02]

And a-shooting down the hill[00:01:03]

Come on you men just fire at will[00:01:04]

I'm gonna keep the promise[00:01:06]

That I made to jenny may[00:01:08]

You can bet I'll finish this letter[00:01:10]

And I'll finish it today[00:01:12]

Well the bullets were a-coming[00:01:14]

From as far as you could see[00:01:15]

The hill was alive with the charging[00:01:16]

But johnny kept a-shooting[00:01:18]

A a-yelling just the same[00:01:19]

The more he kept a-shooting[00:01:20]

Well the more and more they came[00:01:21]

Then he looked down at the letter[00:01:22]

Still held in his hand[00:01:24]

And he said we won't move back an inch[00:01:26]

We're gonna make a stand[00:01:28]

Well he looked around[00:01:30]

And his heart did pound[00:01:31]

When he saw his regiment holding ground[00:01:32]

Old glory was a-flying[00:01:35]

And a-waving in the breeze[00:01:36]

Ain't never been an enemy[00:01:37]

To bring her to her knees[00:01:38]

And we ain't gonna let it happen[00:01:39]

Not now or ever more[00:01:41]

Besides I got a letter to write[00:01:43]

And mail it out by four[00:01:45]

Well the cannon was a-booming[00:01:47]

And the mortars were a-zooming[00:01:48]

And it looked the 4th of july[00:01:49]

And the hill was a-burning[00:01:51]

But the battle was turning[00:01:52]

Cause I heard johnny yell[00:01:53]

It's do or die[00:01:54]

Now the regiment stepped forward[00:01:55]

Some hung their heads to pray[00:01:57]

Then johnny held his gun up high[00:01:59]

And the charge was on it's way[00:02:02]

Well they ran down the hill[00:02:03]

Just a-shooting and a-yelling[00:02:05]

And mowing down the enemy[00:02:06]

As fast as I'm a-telling[00:02:07]

Like a river over rapids[00:02:08]

Just a-flowing and a-going[00:02:08]

While a drummer was a-drumming[00:02:09]

And a bugle was a-blowing[00:02:10]

Til the enemy was defeated[00:02:12]

And they ran with all their might[00:02:14]

From the brave young men[00:02:16]

With a letter in his hand[00:02:17]

And a carbine in his right[00:02:18]

Well johnny is a hero[00:02:20]

Johnny is a hero[00:02:21]

The regiment did claim[00:02:22]

Cause he led the way[00:02:24]

And he saved the day[00:02:25]

And he won for him this fame[00:02:26]

Of a soldier without equal[00:02:28]

In the us infantry[00:02:30]

And it's men like johnny willow[00:02:32]

That keep our country free[00:02:34]
