He stays home from work this time

He never really told his wife

He never really told a lie but this time he decides that it's alright

It's alright

No one really knows his mind and no one knows behind his eyes

The man deserves a medal

But he's never really won a prize before

He goes to lock the door

He is falling in love

He knows it's enough

And the world looks down and frowns

Get up Johnny boy, get up Johnny boy,

Get up 'cause the world has left you lying on the ground

You're my pride and joy, you're my pride and joy

Get up Johnny boy because we all need you now

We all need you now

Someone said, Where you going?

Someone said to you, Goodbye

They deflect the disrespect when they say that they blame it on the times

They blame it on the time

We all know you're qualified to fix a chair and love your wife

They all know you're qualified but they lie when they blame it on the times

And we blame it on the times

He is falling in love

He knows it's enough

And the world looks down and frowns

Get up Johnny boy, get up Johnny boy

Get up 'cause the world has left you lying on the ground

You're my pride and joy, you're my pride and joy

Get up Johnny boy because we all need you now

We all need you now

I will carry all your names and I will carry all your shame

And I will carry all your names and I will carry all your shame

And I will carry all your names and I will carry all your shame

Get up Johnny boy, get up Johnny boy

Get up 'cause the world has left you lying on the ground

You're my pride and joy, you're my pride and joy

Get up Johnny boy because we all need you now

Get up Johnny boy, get up Johnny boy

Get up 'cause the world has left you lying on the ground

You're my pride and joy, you're my pride and joy

Get up Johnny boy because we all need you now
