Johnny Make Believe

Barry Hay / George Kooymans

Waitress more wine
We celebrate the life and times of Johnny Make Believe
He was the greatest liar of all man-kind
The biggest drunk, you ever saw alive
He was a devil, undisguised
He will be sorely missed tonight

And the next day will never be the same
Without the beautiful Johnny Make believe

So let's get high, laugh till we cry
Always remember his last words, yeah
Farewell cruel world
All you pretty girls
Don't send me flowers
Hold me in your dreams
And then the spirit in the bottle
Took our Johnny for a ride

Come on waitress pour us more wine
To drown our grief for Johnny Make Believe

He tattooed my heart, branded my soul
He said: "go for true love not for the fools' gold"

So let's get high, laugh till we cry
Don't send me flowers
Hold me in your dreams
And then the spirit in the bottle
Took our Johnny for a ride

And then the spirit in the bottle
Took our Johnny for a ride
