Skip de skip, up the road Off to school we go Don't you be a bad boy Johnny Don't you slip up Or play the fool Oh no Ma, Oh no Da, I'll be your golden boy I will obey ev'ry golden rule Get told by the teacher Not to day-dream Told by my mother:
Be good Be good Be good be good be good Be good be good be good be good (Johnny) Be good be good Be good be good be good Be good be good be good Be good be good be good Be good (Johnny) Be good be good.
Are you going to play football this year, John No! Oh, well you must be going to play cricket this year then, are you Johnny No! no! no! Boy, you sure are a funny kid, Johnny, but I like you! So tell me, what kind of a boy are you, John
I only like dreaming All the day long Where no one is screaming
Be good be good Be good be good be good Be good be good be good be good (Johnny) Be good be good Be good be good be good Be good be good be good Be good be good be good Be good be good be good Be good be good be good Be good be good be good Be good be good be good be good be good be good be good be good be good be good be good be good Johnny!
