lirik lagu when people were shorter and lived near the water - east side story
[verse 1]
beneath the bare light bulb above
she gazed into the eyes of love
bathed in the dirty neon light
she begged him, “don’t go out tonight
if we work out somehow, maybe
we could find a way out, baby”
and he laughed and said, “i got to go”
and she cried, “no
johnny, johnny no”
oh, johnny, johnny, no
[verse 2]
his arms were strong and warm and young
“i promise i won’t hurt no one
oh baby, when you gonna learn
them folks uptown got bread to burn?
when they see me flash my knife
they’ll be fearin’ for their life
thеy won’t give me trouble, this i know”
and shе cried, “no
oh, johnny, johnny, no”
[verse 3]
the night passed like a thousand years
the tenement room had cooled her tears
then came a knock upon the door
two men she’d never seen before
“did you know johnny brown, miss?
we hate to tell you this but
has he a relative you know?”
and she cried, “no
oh, johnny, johnny, no
oh, johnny, johnny, no”
[outro]
yeah, well, johnny, johnny, no
no, johnny, johnny, no
yeah, johnny, johnny, no
