If you want, then come, but quickly, we're running out Boy, hurry up, because a dark cloud is pulling you up Oh, the sails, put the load on, because something is brewing Hold on tight, my boy, as the sky wants, make the sea your wooden man When the dance begins, look at the mast and don't forget the prayer There is no going back, when the Lord God helps, so he pushed you away Johnny boy, Johnny boy, we're bound for stormy weather Johnny boy, Johnny boy, better wish your lands farewell And back home, far away, our loves will breathe together Oh, Johnny my, it is living and dying, Johnny, say goodbye In the night of hell and the fear of death, the sea plays its game with him And with one stroke, no rock will rise and no wild beast will escape him As the storm settles down, the ship, to be seen, slowly bows to the stern Oh boy, sitting on the mast, no one else on deck With the first beam that breaks through the night, white sails, full speed A ship is coming, hold on tight, my boy, hold on tight, the rescue is near Only a mast rises out of the rocks, Johnny is no longer angry He is brought home, for the rest of the crew, the sails are empty Johnny boy, Johnny boy, we're bound for stormy weather Johnny boy, Johnny boy, may the angels guide you home Somewhere out, far away, you lost your lives together You'll have to try, only heaven knows why, Johnny my boy, goodbye Johnny boy, Johnny boy, we're bound for stormy weather Johnny boy, Johnny boy, may the angels guide you home Somewhere out, far away, you lost your lives together You'll have to try, only heaven knows why, Johnny my boy, goodbye Johnny my boy, goodbye
