A girl called Johnny — текст песни (Waterboys, The)

I remember Johnny - hey!
Johnny come lately
I remember her shoes like a ballerina
A girl called Johnny who
changed her name when she
discovered her choice was to
change or to be changed

I remember a girl called Johnny
black as hell and white as a ghost
Don`t talk about life or death
she said I`ve had enough of both
A girl called Johnny who was not scared
they`d have torn her to pieces but
who would dare?

I remember a girl called Johnny
the train came to town, boy she got on it
with no looking back, with not a word
If she said goodbye, well I never heard
but the noise goes on
the noise, the jazz
and the truth is in somebody else`s hands
and the house that a girl called johnny built
is now just ashes and sand
