Ivy Levan – Johnny Boy lyrics

[Verse 1]
Whatever happened to the days
We were in love like one of those Shakespeare plays
We'd buy that house up on the hill
Keep the flowers you gave me on the windowsill

[Chorus]
But you left me hanging on the end of the line
Going "hello, hello, where's my Johnny boy?"
Promised me forever, everything would be fine
Oh, "hello, hello, where's my Johnny boy?"
You didn't give a reason, you didn't tell me why
No you just, left me hanging on the end of the line
Going "hello, where's my Johnny boy?"

[Verse 2]
Since you've been gone, I've been so low
Just sitting around staring at the telephone
Cause I bought that house up on the hill
There's nothing but dust on empty windowsills

[Chorus]
But you left me hanging on the end of the line
Going "hello, hello, where's my Johnny boy?"
Promised me forever, everything would be fine
Oh, "hello, where's my Johnny boy?"
You didn't give a reason, you didn't tell me why
No you just, left me hanging on the end of the line
Going "hello, where's my Johnny boy?"

[Bridge]
This ain't my home sweet home
Loving you is all I know
This ain't my home sweet home
No this can't be home sweet home
Loving you is all I know
This ain't my home sweet home

[Chorus]
You left me hanging on the end of the line
Going "hello, hello, where's my Johnny boy?"
Promised me forever, everything would be fine
Oh, "hello, hello, where's my Johnny boy?"
You didn't give a reason, you didn't tell me why
No you just, left me hanging on the end of the line
Going "hello, where's my Johnny boy?"
