sadness song

Mama told Johnny not to go downtown
Airborne rangers all around
Johnny went downtown anyway
'tsee what the rangers had to say

Yoh! Ley, a left right ley-oh
Yoh! Ley, a left right ley-ah!

Rangers told Johnny it was not so easy
Not the place he wants to be'n
Johnny decided to check things out
Pack'd his bag and left the house

Yoh! Ley, a left right ley-oh
Yoh! Ley, a left right ley-ah!

First day of school they took his hair
Full of sorrows he couldn't share
He ran and he swam 'til he dragged his tongue
Wond'ring if this is what he wants

Yoh! Ley, a left right ley-oh
Yoh! Ley, a left right ley-ah!

One day ah ten days as time goes by
Stronger he got he couldn't hide
On his graduation day
And he said:

Airborne rangers lead the way!
