| Johnny was a soldier with the Allies
|
| Johnny was a soldier all the way
|
| Johnny was a soldier with a fun side
|
| Johnny liked to laugh a lot each day
|
| Johnny met a girl who was a beauty
|
| Johnny never thought to live in sin
|
| «Do you take this girl?»
|
| «Yes I take this girl»
|
| Johnny had a next of kin
|
| They were happy as they were
|
| So everything around would change
|
| But they would never, ever change
|
| It ain’t 1918 except for these two-it ain’t 1918…
|
| Everybody in Missouri knows them
|
| Everybody there has seen their car
|
| Everybody seen their Stanley Steamer
|
| Everybody knows It’s Johnny’s car
|
| Wave as you see Johnny drive to market
|
| Watch a bit of past go steaming by
|
| Johnny and his bride
|
| Johnny and his car
|
| Without a change of any kind
|
| And they were happy as they were
|
| Everything around had changed
|
| But they had never, ever changed
|
| It ain’t 1918 except for there two-it ain’t 1918…
|
| Many people in St. Lou are wealthy
|
| A lady by the name of Miller is
|
| Wouldn’t it be nice to help out Johnny
|
| Kinda play a real life Santa Claus
|
| She and many other St. Lou people
|
| Bought ol' Johnny quite a fancy car
|
| And a modern home
|
| Threw away his comb
|
| Bought his wife a Paris scarf
|
| Johnny thanked the St. Lou folk
|
| But told them in a voice so sad
|
| That he would rather stay as is
|
| The people of St. Lou were mad, and they said
|
| It ain’t 1918 for us or for you
|
| If we can’t enjoy it…
|
| Then neither will you |
