I was young, i was just sixteen then,
When you came up from burma one day.
And you told me to pack up my suitcase,
And i did, and you took me away.
I said, "do you work nice and steady,
Or do you go sailing and roving out to sea?"
And you said, "i have a job on the railroad,
And baby, how swell it’s all gonna be."
You said a lot, johnny. it was all lies.
You sure had me fooled, right from the start.
I hate you when you laugh at me like that.
Take that pipe out of your mouth, johnny.

Surabaya johnny. is it really the end?
Surabayajohnny. will the hurt ever mend?
Surabaya johnny. ooh, i burn at your touch.
You got no heart, johnny, but oh, i love you so much.

Thought at first you were kind and gentle,
‘til i packed up and went off with you.
And it lasted two weeks until one day
You laughed at me and hit me too.
You dragged me all over the city,
Up the river and down to the sea.
Now i look at myself in the mirror
And some old woman looks back at me.
You didn’t want love, johnny, you wanted money.
I gave you all i had. you wanted more.
Oh, don’t look at me that way.
I’m only trying to talk to you.
Wipe that grin off your face, johnny.
>surabaya johnny. is it really the end?
Surabayajohnny. will the pain never mend?
Surabaya johnny. how i burn at your touch.
You got no heart, johnny, but oh, i love you so much.

When we met i forgot to ask you
Why they called you that funny name,
But in every hotel on the seacoast
I found out, and i loved you all the same.
I’m tired. i’m worn out.
The sea’s pounding in my ears.
And i reach out my arms to hold you.
You’re not here and who even cares?
You got no heart, johnny. you’re just no good.
You going now? oh, tell me why.
I love you after all, johnny, like that very first day.
Don’t laugh at me no more, johnny.

Surabaya johnny. is it really the end?
Surabayajohnny. will the hurt ever mend?
Surabaya johnny. oh, i burn at your touch.
You got no heart, johnny, but oh, i love you,
I love you, i love you so much.

I had just turned sixteen that season
When you came up from burma to stay.
And you told me i ought to travel with you,
You were sure it would be ok.
When i asked how you earned your living,
I can still hear what you said to me:
You had some kind of job on the railway
And had nothing to do with the sea.

You said a lot, johnny,
All one big lie, johnny.
You cheated me blind, johnny,
From the minute we met.
I hate you so, johnny,
When you stand there grinning, johnny.
Take that damn pipe out of your mouth, you rat.

Surabaya johnny,
No one’s meaner than you.
Surabaya johnny,
My god ¡º and i still love you so.
Surabaya johnny,
Why am i feeling so blue ?
You have no heart, johnny,
And i still love you so.

At the start, every day was sunday,
Till we went on our way one fine night.
And before two more weeks were over,
You thought nothing i did was right.
So we trekked up and down through the punjab,
From the source of the river to the sea.
When i look at my face in the mirror,
There’s an old woman staring back at me.

You didn’t want love, johnny,
You wanted cash, johnny.
But i sewed your lips, johnny,
And that was that.
You wanted it all, johnny,
I gave you more, johnny.
Take that damn pipe out of your mouth, you rat.

Surabaya johnny.
No one’s meaner than you.
Surabaya johnny.
My god ¡º and i still love you so.
Surabaya johnny,
Why am i feeling so blue ?
You have no heart, johnny.
And i still love you so.

I would never have thought of asking
How you’d got that peculiar name,
But from one end of the coast to the other
You were known everywhere we came.
And one day in a two-bit flophouse
I’ll wake up to the roar of the sea,
And you’ll leave without one word of warning
On a ship waiting down at the quay.

You have no heart, johnny!
You’re just a louse, johnny!
How could you go, johnny,
And leave me flat ?
You’re still my love, johnny,
Like the day we met, johnny.
Take that damn pipe out of your mouth, you rat.

Surabaya johnny.
No one’s meaner than you.
Surabaya johnny,
My god ¡º and i still love you so.
Surabaya johnny,
Why am i feeling so blue ?
You have no heart, johnny.
And i still love you so.

Thank you! thank you very much.

I was only a child when i met you.
You came from the burma lagoon.
You said, "would you like a bit of travel?"
You promised me all but the moon.
I asked you what you did for a living.
And you swore, god’s my witness, to me.
That you worked for the railroad people,
And would never ever follow the sea.

You said a lot, johnny.
Not a word was true, johnny.
You betrayed me, johnny
The moment we met.
I hate your guts johnny.
Don’t stand there grinning
Take that cigarette out of your mouth, you pig.

Surabaya johnny,
Why did you treat me so wrong?
Surabaya, johnny,
My god, and i do love you so.
Surabaya, johnny,
Why am i feeling so low?
You have no heart, johnny.
And i do love you so.

At first, it was always sunday,
As long as i pleased you at night.
But only a few weeks later,
Not a thing i did was right.
Up and down we tramped through the punjab,
The river along to the sea.
But now when i look in the mirror,
There’s a broken face that i see.

You wanted no love, johnny.
You wanted the loot, johnny.
But your lips, johnny,
I could never forget.
You asked for everything, johnny,
I gave you more, johnny.
Take that cigarette out of your mouth, you shit

Surabaya, johnny.
Why did treat me so bad?
Surabaya, johnny,
My god, and i love you so.
Surabaya, johnny.
Why am i feeling so low?
You have no heart, johnny,
And i do love you so.

I wish i had paid more attention
To that nickname of yours and the rest.
All along that bloody awful coastline,
You have been a notorious guest.
In a sixpence-a-night bed one morning,
I will wake to the thunder of the sea.
And your ship will be leaving the harbour,
And you won’t even wave to me.

You have no heart, johnny!
You’re a bastard, johnny!
Why did you leave me?
Can you tell me that?
I love you more, johnny,
Than the first night, johnny.
Take that fucking cigarette out of your mouth, you shit.

Surabaya, johnny.
Why did you treat me so wrong?
Surabaya, johnny,
My god, and i do love you so.
Surabaya, johnny.
Why am i feeling so low?
‘cos you have no heart, johnny.
And i do love you so.
