Lyrics

[Dedicated to the memory of john kelly]
Say hey johnny boy, the battle call
United we stand, divided we fall
Together we are what we can't be alone
We came to this country, you made it our home
This man so humble, this man so brave
A legend to many, he fought to his grave
Saved family and friends from the hardship and horror, in a land of depression he gave hope for tomorrow
Say johnny, the boy, this ones for you
With the strength of many and the courage of few
To what do we owe this man who's fight was for the masses, he gave his life
Say hey johnny boy, the battle call united we stand, divided we fall
Together we are what we can't be alone, we came to this country, you made it our home
A friend to the locals who dabbled in crime
He'd give you a job and he'd give you his time
He wasn't a crook, but he couldn't be conned
John knew the difference
Between right and wrong
Say johnny me boy, you live no longer
Others forgotten, your memorys stronger
Lets drink to the causes in your life:
Your family, your friends, the union, your wife
Say hey johnny boy, the battle call
United we stand, divided we fall
Together we are what we can't be alone
We came to this country, you made it our home
And the boys on the docks needed john for sure
When they came to this
Country he opened the door
He said "man I'll tell ya, they don't like our kind
Though it starts with a fist it must end with your mind."
Say hey johnny boy, the battle call
United we stand, divided we fall
Together we are what we can't be alone
We came to this country you made it our home
