No One Else But You - Sounds Sensational

作词：Lalah Hathaway

作曲：Dave Baby Cortez

Johnny willow was a soldier

In the us infantry

And they sent him

Off to battle in 1943

Now johnny had a girl back home

Her name was jenny may

And he made a solemn promise

That he'd write to her each day

Was early monday morning

And the sun began to shine

And johnny thought he'd rest a while

And drop his girl a line

He took his pen and began to write

My dearest darling may

And a shot rang out and he turned around

And he heard somebody say

The enemy's coming up the hill

There's a thousand if there's one

A meaner bunch you've never seen

Come on we better run

But johnny jumped out to his feet

He held the letter tight

Come on you dog faced soldiers

We're gonna stay and fight

Well he dropped his pen

And he grabbed his gun

And he said I'll show you

How to get them on the run

Then he started in a-running

And a-shooting down the hill

Come on you men just fire at will

I'm gonna keep the promise

That I made to jenny may

You can bet I'll finish this letter

And I'll finish it today

Well the bullets were a-coming

From as far as you could see

The hill was alive with the charging

But johnny kept a-shooting

A a-yelling just the same

The more he kept a-shooting

Well the more and more they came

Then he looked down at the letter

Still held in his hand

And he said we won't move back an inch

We're gonna make a stand

Well he looked around

And his heart did pound

When he saw his regiment holding ground

Old glory was a-flying

And a-waving in the breeze

Ain't never been an enemy

To bring her to her knees

And we ain't gonna let it happen

Not now or ever more

Besides I got a letter to write

And mail it out by four

Well the cannon was a-booming

And the mortars were a-zooming

And it looked the 4th of july

And the hill was a-burning

But the battle was turning

Cause I heard johnny yell

It's do or die

Now the regiment stepped forward

Some hung their heads to pray

Then johnny held his gun up high

And the charge was on it's way

Well they ran down the hill

Just a-shooting and a-yelling

And mowing down the enemy

As fast as I'm a-telling

Like a river over rapids

Just a-flowing and a-going

While a drummer was a-drumming

And a bugle was a-blowing

Til the enemy was defeated

And they ran with all their might

From the brave young men

With a letter in his hand

And a carbine in his right

Well johnny is a hero

Johnny is a hero

The regiment did claim

Cause he led the way

And he saved the day

And he won for him this fame

Of a soldier without equal

In the us infantry

And it's men like johnny willow

That keep our country free
