Johnny Was - Bob Marley & The Wailers

作词：Rita Marley

作曲：Rita Marley

Woman hold her head and cry

Cause her son had been shot down

In the street and died

From a stray bullet

Woman hold her head and cry

Explaining to her was a passerby

Who saw the woman cry

Wondering how can she work it out

Now she knows

That the wages of sin is death

The gift of Jah is life

She cried

Oh oh ah-la a moan

Johnny was a good man

Ah-la a moan

Johnny was a good

Good good good

Good good good

Good good good

Good man

She cried She cried

Woman hold her head and cry

As her son had been shot down

In the street and died

Just because of the system

Woman hold her head and cry

Comforting her I was passing by

She complained then she cried

Whoa-oh oh ah

Yeah I know now

(Johnny was a good man)

Said I know

(Never did a thing wrong)

Ah ah

(Johnny was a good man)

Can a woman tender care

She cried

(Never did a thing wrong)

Cease towards the child she bear

(Johnny was a good man)

Woman cried

Woman she cried

Oh she cried yeah

She Can a woman tender care

Cease towards the child she bears

Woman cry

Johnny was
