John’s Song (The Jinxs)
Strophe: G A h 3x dann G A
Refrain: h G D A
you were healthy young men and you were friends
you knew each other as if you were brothers
you went to school you made your own rules
you came to the college to extend your knowledge
you received the invitation in a blue envelope
you had to fight for your nation
and you went there with hope
hey, come on John, sing us your song
of honour and glory while your friends have all gone
sing, sing us your song, keep on singing alone
of honour and glory while your friends have all gone
you were standing there in your uniforms
said good-bye to your mothers saluted your fathers
„I’ll be soon back home“ you stood there and smiled
but the war was too cruel it shot down your pride
you received the invitation in a blue envelope
you had to fight for your nation
and you went there with hope
hey, come on John, sing us your song
of honour and glory while your friends have all gone
sing, sing us your song, keep on singing alone
of honour and glory while your friends have all gone
