Generate meaning
1
Somewhere on the waterfront
2
Johnny's hiding with a gun
3
Swears he'll kill any man that tells his story
4
He's not sorry for what he's done
5
He broke into a drugstore
6
To cure his daily need
7
He didn't mean to shoot the guard
8
But he was blinded by the greed
9
Oh Johnny
10
You see that nun, she's his sister
11
She doesn't know that he's gone bad
12
When they told it to his father
13
It drove the old man mad
14
Just as his mother warned him
15
From her dying bed
16
It's alright to lose your heart
17
But never lose your head
18
Oh Johnny
19
Now the cops have got him surrounded
20
And he doesn't stand a hope
21
He wonders how he could be in so much trouble
22
Over just a little dope
23
Five to one he gets away
24
That's the odds I'm going to give
25
Five to four they blast him away
26
Three to one he's going to live
27
Oh Johnny
28
Back in the alley where he was slain
29
I thought I heard something move
30
Beside the trash can lay a heart and chain
31
The picture had been removed
32
Just another juiced up junkie
33
Looking for a bed
34
It's alright to lose your heart
35
But never lose your head
36
Oh Johnny
