Oh, Johnny Johnny, John, come along, come along,
Oh Johnny, Johnny John, come along.
Don’t stand there like a silly old fool,
don’t stand there and don’t be so cool .
Dont’t feel shy of the ladies,
and the teeth in his mount went bang bang.

Down by the sea,
Where the watermelons grow.
Back to my home,
I shall not go, and shall I dream of love’s sweet song
Who can be happier than a sailor tonight?

Oh, Johnny Johnny, John, was a sailorman
he had been all a round all the day.
Joking with the ladies, playing hide en seek
happy as the day went bang a bang a bang.
Not a penny he had to pay for.
Ay deedle dy all the day.

Down by the sea,
Where the watermelons grow.
Back to my home,
I shall not go, and shall I dream of love’s sweet song
Who can be happier than a sailor tonight?

Oh, Johnny, Johnny, John take your gun, take your gun.
There are monkees in the garden playing in the sun.
Johnny took the gun and the gun was loaded,
pulled on the trigger and the gun exploded
ay deedle bum bum ay deedle bum and he’ll never pulled a trigger of a gun.

Down by the sea,
Where the watermelons grow.
Back to my home,
I shall not go, and shall I dream of love’s sweet song
Who can be happier than a sailor tonight ?
