Boys on the docks

Say hey Johnny boy the battle call

United we stand divided we fall

Together we are what we can't be alone

We came to this country and made it our home

This man so humble and this man so brave

A legend to many he fought to his grave

Saved friends and family from the hardship and horror

In the land of depression he gave hope for tomorrow

Say Johnny the boy this one's for you

The strength of many but the courage of the few

To what do we owe this man who's fight was for the masses

He gave his life

Say hey Johnny boy the battle call

United we stand and divided we fall

Together we are what we can't be alone

We came to this country you made it our home

A friend to the locals who dabbled in crime

He'd give you a job and he'd give you his time

He wasn't a crook but he couldn't be conned

John knew the difference between right and wrong

Say Johnny me boy you live no longer

Others forgotten your memory's stronger

Lets drink to the causes in your life

Your family your friends the union your wife

Say hey Johnny boy the battle call

United we stand divided we fall

Together we are what we can't be alone

We came to this country you made it our home

Say hey Johnny boy the battle call

United we stand divided we fall

Together we are what we can't be alone

We came to this country you made it our home

And the boys on the docks needed John for sure

When they came to this country he opened the door

He said "Man I'll tell ya they don't like our kind

Though it starts with a fist it must end with your mind"

Say hey Johnny boy the battle call

United we stand divided we fall

Together we are what we can't be alone

We came to this country you made it our home
