Johnny the horse was kicked to death, he died for entertainment, would you believe he came at will, he had a bright enquiring mind, his family knew that he'd go far, if he'd apply his time, but he started out standing on corners and talking out loud, too loud, you see he couldn't believe in himself or the world or anything he heard,

it seems a million years ago, but he left his life behind, the moment came for him to go, he said goodbye to his wife and child, he started out walking, he never looked back, there was too much pain, between glasgow and london, one hot summer he forgot his name,

can you remember his name
