There are some stories about old Johnny boy A man who was wise and strong But he drunk to much, old whiskey and Beer You know what I’m talking about He’s spirit has walked over the hills And the seas whispering he’s name You could hear he’s voice he talked with the wind The man who lives in your heart
Here’s the poet who draws his own lines Here’s the man and he’s spirit flies through the sky Like an eagle flies so free up in the sky I feel so warm inside, like Johnny stood here beside
The story of old Johnny boy never dies I heard a new one to day And the wind touch my soul, and I heard a song While the mist lies over the fields And I saw a shadow on the hills one day I think it was Johnny a saw The man was poet the man was a fool The ghost who lives in your heart
Here’s the poet who draws his own lines Here’s the man and he’s music lays in the air
And when the children sing his songs once again I feel so sad inside, like Johnny stood here beside Here’s the poet who draws his own lines
Here’s the man who lives in your heart and minds Here’s the poet who draws his own lines Here’s the man who always will be in your life
