lyrics

Johnny never says much of nothing
Sitting in the back of the class
After school he’s always out running
‘Round the track

Mommy had a bun in the oven
Daddy left and never came back
Least that’s what I heard from my cousin
Who heard from Zack

Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na
Johnny on his own

I never see him out at the parties
Never see him out at the games
Part of me can’t help but feel sorry
He’s so strange

I wonder what he does on the weekends
It never looks like anyone’s home
I wonder if he’s got any real friends
Of his own

Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na
Johnny on his own

Johnny never said much of nothing
Sitting in the back of the class
Aside from the occasional humming
Mmm Mmm Mmm

Then he showed up later one morning
With something more than books on his back
All the local stations reporting
He just snapped

Johnny on his own
There goes Johnny on his own
