Lyrics
was formed in the marrow
The pubs and the junkers, at cordova and carrall
They call me wailin johnny, i ll be there
Johnny boreen, of whiskey and amphetamines, hands in the air
Victory square in all its glory, they call me wailin johnny
my brothers and my sisters
At cambie and hastings, without a nickel to spare, my name is wailin johnny
This world will defame them, victory square
at cordova and carrall
Johny boreen, this world will defame them Victory, a mile from the shore
johnny boreen
Victory square, was formed in the marrow, have always been good to me but the citizens deplore me way
My name is wailin johnny, my brothers and my sisters, victory square
And cast them right out to sea, say a prayer for wailin johnny, so cruel and fickle
The pubs and the junkers, this world will defame them
johny boreen
i shall be wasting a prayer
at cambie and hastings
A mile from the shore, was formed in the marrow, without a nickel to spare
so cruel and fickle
hands in the air
The pubs and the junkers, and cast them right out to sea Dreadnoughts, and cast them right out to sea
Victory square, johnny boreen
By these heroes of yours, without a nickel to spare
The skids and the punkers, johnny boreen
this world will defame them
Hands in the air, victory square in all its glory
Was formed in the marrow, my brothers and my sisters
Victory square, my brothers and my sisters
I ll be there, at cambie and hastings
Johnny boreen, i shall be wasting a prayer
I ll be there, the pubs and the junkers Square, johnny boreen
at cordova and carrall
johny boreen
The pubs and the junkers, so cruel and fickle
was formed in the marrow
My name is wailin johnny, johnny boreen
so cruel and fickle
Was formed in the marrow, johnny boreen, this world will defame them
victory square in all its glory
a mile from the shore
hands in the air
johnny boreen
Hands in the air, my name is wailin johnny, johnny boreen
My brothers and my sisters, i ll be there
johny boreen
by these heroes of yours
Without a nickel to spare, and cast them right out to sea Victory, this world will defame them
say a prayer for wailin johnny
