Johnny came home headless


Oh, johnny was a tall man but his memory was short
Hed forget to at doorways and often hed get hurt
I took good care of him for he had no family
Actually he did, but he forgot who they be

Johnny often liked to go out on the town
Hed forget where hed be going so hed just wander around
I when he was back for I would hear the smack
Of his head hitting the doorway but tonight it was alack

Johnny came home headless, it was a great disgrace
But wherever its a-lying theres a smile upon his face
I should have seen it coming, he finally lost his mind
But if his head dont turn up soon then all his hats are mine

Johnny came towards me but suddenly he stopped
As if trying to think of something but having no luck
Still he didnt notice that his head werent there
til he took out a brush and tried to comb his hair

I said, johnny wheres your cranium? but he didnt seem to know
He just shrugged his shoulders and tried to find his nose
And the sight of him there topless made me start to cry
For I learned wed neer see eye to eye

Johnny came home headless, it was a great disgrace
But wherever its a-lying theres a smile upon his face
I should have seen it coming, he should have stayed in bed
For now I fear hell spend his life just trying to get ahead

Refusing to believe that he had split for good
His lower half and me searched the neighbourhood
It soon became apparent that his head we wouldnt find it
He could not retrace his steps, he was absent minded

Well years went by til late one night I heard a voice I swore
Was johnny calling out to me, I flung open the door
Johnnys head was home, it took a taxi cab
Alas, it was too late, his body had gone bad

Johnnys head was homeless, his body was cremated
And the funeral was harder than he had anticipated
I should of seen it coming he said in his eulogy
But never thought Id have to say I aint got no-body

(I aint got nobody)

Johnny came home headless, it was a great disgrace
But now his heads upon a shelf, a smile upon his face
But now his heads upon a shelf, a smile upon his face

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
