Madness - Johnny The Horse
Johnny the horse, was kicked to death
He died for entertainment
Would you believe he came out well, he had a bright inquiring mind
His family knew that he'd go far, if he applied his time
But he started out standing on corners and talking out loud, Too loud
You see he couldn't believe in himself or the world or anything he heard
It seems a million years ago, that he left his life behind
The moment came for him to go, he said goodbye to his wife and child
He started out walking, he never looked back, there was too much pain
Between Glasgow and London, one hot summer he forgot his name
Can you remember his name?
do do do, do, do, do do do, do do whoa
Can you remember his name?
do do do, do, do, do do do, do do whoa
Can you remember?
But he started out standing on corners and talking out loud, Too loud
You see he couldn't believe in himself or the world or anything he heard
Can you remember his name?
do do do, do, do, do do do, do do whoa
Can you remember his name?
do do do, do, do, do do do, do do whoa
Will you remember?

Will you remember his name?
do do do, do, do, do do do, do do whoa
Can you remember?
do do do, do, do, do do do, do do whoa
N/
he took his bated bones and his broken dreams, to regions past, sunset
Will you remember?
do do do, do, do, do do do, do do whoa
Will you remember his name?
do do do, do, do, do do do, do do whoa
Will you remember?
do do do, do, do, do do do, do do whoa
Will you remember?
do do do, do, do, do do do, do do whoa
G let fade
