Ooh, Johnny Raven
Part of me is gonna die
When my restless heart says goodbye
Ooh, I'm gonna fly when you cry
Part of me is gonna die
I'm gonna fly when you cry, yeah
How can you cage a bird
Settling down ain't my nature
Look at you little girl
Yeah, I'm Johnny Raven by and by
Never can feel
Everybody knows my name
I'm Johnny Raven by and by
Yeah, but I gotta leave you
Girl you know I shouldn't have loved you
Stray I will
Johnny, Johnny, Johnny
He's Johnny Raven
Another nest to try
Seems I gotta need one girl
Oh, your smile
Oh, I'm going to leave your nest girl
He's Johnny Raven
Ooh, I'm Johnny Raven yeah, yeah, by and by
Free and untamed that's how I've grown
Ooh, Johnny Raven
Stay right here for keeps
Another nest to try
I'd change for you like that
Oh, I'm going to leave your nest girl
Born to be wild
Johnny, Johnny, Johnny
Yeah, but I gotta leave you
Girl you know I shouldn't have loved you
You feel love so deep, yeah, yeah
If I could change in a second
Roots I'll never own
I'm Johnny Raven yeah, yeah, by and by
Johnny, Johnny, Johnny
But tell me, ain't your child
When my restless heart says goodbye
But I'm home free for no thrills
