Lyrics
Johnny?s Coming Home for Christmas
Words and Music
by John DiLeo
(c)2007 Cosmic Trog Music
Johnny?s coming home for Christmas
and we?re gonna have a hell of a time
he?s been gone for so long
but he?s flying back home tonight
Well, Johnny he?s a soldier
he?s been giving it all his might
missing his friends and his family
his little baby and his wife
we?re gonna rock till the cows come home
we?re gonna shake, we won?t leave him alone
he?s been gone, so far away
we?re gonna have a party, night and day
Johnny?s coming home for Christmas
You know it seems like yesterday
he and his buddies were riding their bikes
and dreaming their lives away
he dreamed about being a doctor
he dreamed about being a star
he dreamed about fighting fires
and playing music in a bar
we?re gonna rock till they all come home
we?re gonna shake, we won?t leave ?em alone
he?s been gone, so far away
but now he?s coming back here to stay
Johnny?s coming home for Christmas
we?ll salute him all through town
we?re gonna carry him on our shoulders
and we won?t make a single sound
Johnny?s coming home for Christmas
Johnny?s coming home for Christmas
and we?re going to lay him down
