Rumor has it 'round the neighborhood
Someone told me today :
"Watch that man 'cause he ain't no good"
It's time you sleep anyway

He is always hanging 'round the clocks
Dancing the night away
Leavin' every night with someone else
Through the new everyday
It's time you sleep anyway

Johnny, Johnny please come home
Please don't stay away too long
Johnny, Johnny, please come home
You're making me cry

Johnny, Johnny please come home
Please don't stay away too long
Johnny, Johnny, please come home
Don't tell me goodbye

I don't care what all the people say
'Bout the man that I love
I don't believe all the stories they tell
Words don't tell me enough

I know that he will come back to me
Hold me close in his arms
Making up and making love all night
He would do me no harm
Everythin' is alright

Johnny, Johnny please come home
Please don't stay away too long
Johnny, Johnny please come home
You're making me cry
