Well there's old Johnny Johnson in Europe
And in combat regalia he's decked
With all the vigor that a young man could stir up
And all the recklessness one might expect

From a bucking young Lieutenant Colonel
On his virgin adventure abroad
With the faith that his youth was eternal
And his destiny guarded by God

Just the way that the uniform fit him
Was like some kind of magical shield
No enemy would hit him
And he'd die upon no battlefield

Yeah, there's old Johnny Johnson in Europe
Defending us from the Third Reich
But these old photographs tend to blur up
And the image becomes shadow-like

Like a balding man's hairline
Like a tidal wave swelling
Like a hurricane's ravenous blow
Everything reaches its level of greatness
And back it must, back it must go

In a box of momentos I'm given
Underneath where the silverfish thrive
In the trunk of a car scarcely driven
Which was parked on a pea-gravel drive

Right alongside a most modest dwelling
That was even more modest inside
That his children intended on selling
Now that their father had died

In a city on bankruptcy's border
Whose residents relish the time
When coffee was only a quarter
And cigarettes cost but a dime

There's a picture of a man badly needed
For his country, gun fearlessly carried
But then old Johnny Johnson receded
Just like the town where is body is buried.

Like a balding man's hairline
Like a tidal wave swelling
Like a hurricane's ravenous blow
Everything reaches its level of greatness
And back it must, back it must go
