Johnny Todd Songtext
von Bob Dylan & The Band

Johnny Todd Songtext

Johnny Todd he took a notion
For to cross the ocean wide
And he left his love behind him
Walkin′ down by the Liverpool tide

For a week she wept full sorrows
Tore her hair and wrung her hands
Till she met another sailor
Walkin' down by the Liverpool sands


Why fair maid are you a-weeping
For your Johnny gone to sea?
If you wed with me tomorrow
I′ll be by you constantly

I will buy you clothes and blankets
I'll buy you a wedding ring
You shall have a gilded cradle
For to rock you baby in

Johnny Todd came home from sailin'
Sailin′ on that ocean wide
And he found his fair and false one
Was another sailor′s bride


Now, all you men who go a-sailing
For to fight the foreign foe
Never leave, never leave love like Johnny
Marry her before you go
