The Ccouple looked down at their newborn child in their shack that was
   falling to G7bits,
The mother said, "Let's call it Johnny," the father said, "Let's call it
   [C]quits."
And when Johnny was four, his pa was too poor to buy toys from the
   C7Christmas shop Fshelves,
So he just fired his gun and he Ctold his young son Father G7Christmas
   had shot himCself.
Now Cone day his ma took him to a fair and he went on a round-aG7bout,
He giggled with glee, "I wanna go wee!"  Everyone heard the boy Cshout.
She took him by the hand, from the fairground they ran, she took him be-
   [C7]hind  Abig [F]tree,
She said, "There, shut your row, you can Cgo wee now," he took a
   G7deep  breath and went, "CWheeee!"
   Then he said, "CPlease can I go 'round again, ma?  Please can I go
      'round A[G7]gain?
   Oh, I love the sound of the merry-go-round, please let me go 'round
      A[C]gain?
   I'll do all of my homework, I'll even kiss C7old Auntie FGwen,
   And I won't shout out loud, ma, CI'll make you proud, G7please let
      me go 'round aCgain."
At Ctwelve he danced with his gym mistress, she said, "Johnny, you're
   wicked and you're G7bad,
I wish I was your ma for just half an hour," John said, "I'll have a word
   with my Cdad."
Then someone dropped a lit cigarette down the back of her dress but
   C7she didn't Fshout,
She just walked off the floor and she Csaid, "What a bore, I shall
   G7just have to sit this one Cout."
   And Johnny said, "CPlease can we go 'round again, Miss Rhodes, please
      can we go 'round aG7gain?
   I've not been this close to a woman before and heck knows when I will
      A[C]gain.
   Oh, I tell you true, I could dance with you 'til the cows come C7home
      and Fthen,
   I could dance with the cows, so Cplease, Miss Rhodes, G7please let
      me go 'round aCgain."
At C18, Irene with the hourglass figure got him in a heck of a G7fix,
Her pa came 'round and Johnny was found with his hands on a quarter to
   [C]six.
They were married the next day in the church by the bay, 10 a.m., the
   C715th of FJune,
She looked lovely in white as she said, "CJohnny, tonight "  He said,
   "To G7heck with tonight, this afterCnoon!"
   "CThen can we go 'round again?  In the meantime can we go 'round
      A[G7]gain?
   I tell ya I haven't felt like this since I can't remember Cwhen.
   And seein' you lay there beside me, oh it damn near C7blows my
      [F]mind,
   Oh please can we go 'round aCgain and again, and then G7'round
      again one more Ctime?"
Johnny's Cmother-in-law came to live next door, she had a tongue that
   stung like a G7bee,
She said, "I'll dance on your grave," Johnny said, "That's brave, 'cause
   I'm gonna be buried at Csea."
At 50 he took to coming home late, he wasn't a C7creature of Fhabit.
If he came home early his wife thought he was Cup to something, if he
   came home G7late she thought that he'd Chad it.
He was Cjust 91 on the day he passed on, it was the way that he hoped it
   would G7be,
He was shot by a beauty queen's husband in a fit of jealousCy.
As he lay on the floor a priest was sent forward, and with his last breath
   C7Johnny conFfessed,
"I spent all of my money on Cwoman and drink and like a G7fool I
   squandered the Crest."
   "CLord, can I go 'round again?  Please can I go 'round aG7gain?
   Oh, I can't believe that I'll never see your sky or your trees aCgain.
   Oh, the girls and the wine and the living were fine, I shouldn't com-
      C7plain but Fthen,
   You give damned short rides on this Cfairground of yours, Lord, oh
      G7please let me go 'round aCgain."
