Johnny The Horse

SONG COMPOSERS, LYRICS AND BACKGROUND

LYRICS

Johnny the horse was kicked to death
He died for entertainment

Would you believe he came out well
He had a bright inquiring mind
His family knew that he’d go far
If he applied his time

But he started out standing on corners
And talking out loud too loud
You see he couldn’t believe in himself or the world
Or anything he heard

It seems a million years ago
That he left his life behind
The moment came for him to go
He said goodbye to his wife and child

He started out walking he never looked back
There was too much pain
Between Glasgow and London
One hot summer he forgot his name

Can you remember his name?
Doodley Doo Doo Doo Doodley Doodley Doo Woooh

Can you remember his name?

Can you remember his name?
Doodley Doo Doo Doo Doodley Doodley Doo Woooh

Will you remember?

He took his battered bones and his broken dreams
To Regent’s Park at sunset

Will you remember?
Will you remember his name?
Will you remember?

Johnny The Horse was kicked to death
He died for entertainment
