John Leyton — Lonely Johnny lyrics

Lyrics

Down in my heart I wonder why
I’m such a lonely guy,
Deep in the night I sit an' cry —
Lonely Johnny.
Once I thought I found true love
But all she was dreamin' of
Were the diamond rings and the money of —
Lonely Johnny.
Yeah, 'Lonely Johnny' they call me
Wanderin' by,
Just a broken-hearted traveller
With a tear in my eye.
Some day I’m goin' a-cross the plain
To find true love again,
On that day I’m gonna lose the name —
Lonely Johnny.
Guess I’ll search the whole world through
Until I find a girl that’s true,
Who can spare a kiss or two —
For Lonely Johnny?
Yeah, 'Lonely Johnny' they call me
Wanderin' by,
Just a broken-hearted traveller
With a tear in my eye.
Guess I’ll search the whole world through
Until I find a gal that’s true,
Who can spare a kiss or two —
For Lonely Johnny?
Yeah, 'Lonely Johnny' they call me
Wanderin' by,
Just a broken-hearted traveller
With a tear in my eye.
