Johnny's Brother

[00:02.88] I'll tell you a story
[00:05.02] about Johnny McClory:
[00:07.05] that's how my story was begun.
[00:11.33] I'll tell you another
[00:14.41] about Johnny's brother,
[00:17.56] and now you may think my story is done...
[00:25.16] The first time I met Johnny
[00:27.46] I could see he was bonny,
[00:29.92] and when he looked at me how we did glow.
[00:34.77] But just as we were gazing at each other,
[00:39.82] Johnny's brother was down in Mexico.
[00:47.29] I went to a party
[00:49.54] with Johnny my hearty;
[00:52.12] I never felt to happy and so gay.
[00:56.38] But just as we were drinking to each other,
[01:01.50] Johnny's brother was down in Santa Fe.
[01:09.40] And down in the garden
[01:11.72] my heart would not harden;
[01:14.03] how well I can recall those tender scenes.
[01:18.43] But just as we were kissing one another,
[01:23.30] Johnny's brother was down in New Orleans.
[01:30.99] I didn't want to tarry
[01:33.27] my Johnny to marry,
[01:35.46] and so I got myself a wedding gown.
[01:40.34] But just as we were wedded to each other,
[01:45.12] Johnny's brother came riding into town.
[01:56.88] The years have been merry,
[01:59.71] oh, very, very, very.
[02:02.22] I love my Johnny well and he loves me.
[02:06.55] But all the while we're lovin' up each other,
[02:11.04] Johnny's brother holds the baby on his knee.
[02:19.71] I've told you a story
[02:21.96] about Johnny McClory:
[02:24.28] that's how my story was begun.
[02:29.03] I've told you another
[02:31.96] about Johnny's brother,
[02:35.35] and now my story is done.
