Lyrics No Tears For Johnny - Chad & Jeremy

No Tears For Johnny

No tears for Johnny
People, don’t you cry
No tears for Johnny
Just because he’s gonna die
He’s gonna be a hero
From now till the end of time
So shed no tears for Johnny boy
Marching in the thin red line
When the drums begin to roll
Trumpets start to blow
Johnny must not reason why
He knows he’s gotta go
Fight for power and glory
Johnny, go to war
And if a hundred boys should die
We can send in a hundred more
No tears for Johnny
People, don’t you cry
No tears for Johnny
Just because he’s gonna die
A lesson for the world to learn
Is one that we all ignore
So Johnny keep on marching till
We forget what you’re marching for
