(Song was dedicated to the memory of John Kelly)

Chorus

Say hey Johnny Boy the battle call

united we stand, united we fall

together we are what we can't be alone

we canme to this country you made it our home

This man so humble This man so brave,

A legend to many, he fought to his grave

saved his family and friends

from the hardship and horror in a land of depression

he gave hope for tomorrow say johnny me boy this one's for you with

the strength of many and the courage of a few

to what do we owe this man who's fight was for the masses

he have his life

Chorus:

Friend to the locals who dabbled in crime

he'd five you a job and he'd give you his time

he wasn't a crook but he couldn't be cunned

John knew te difference between right and wrong

Say Johnny Boy you live no longer others forgotten

your memories stronger luts drink to the causes

in your family, your friends, the union your wife

Chorus x2

And the boys on the docks needed John for sure

when they came to this country he opened the door

he said man I'll tell ya, they don't like our kind

though it starts with your fist it must end with your mind!

Chorus x2
