Johnny Raven lyrics

Free and untamed that's how I've grown

(It's Johnny Raven)

Settling down ain't my nature

Roots I'll never own

(It's Johnny Raven)

Oh your smile

But tell me, ain't your child

How can you cage a bird

Born to be wild

Refrain

I'm Johnny Raven

(He's Johnny Raven)

by and by (By and By)

Oh, I'm going to leave your nest girl

Another nest to try

Ooh Johnny Raven

Girl you know I shouldn't have loved you

Yeah, but I gotta leave you

When my restless heart says goodbye

Look at you little girl

You feel love so deep

(It's Johnny Raven)

If I could change in a second

I'd change for you like that

Stay right here for keeps

(It's Johnny Raven)

But I'm home free for no thrills

Stray I will

Seems I gotta need one girl

Never can feel

Refrain

Yeah I'm Johnny Raven

(It's Johnny Raven)

by and by

Oh, I'm going to leave yoour nest girl

Another nest to try

Ooh Johnny Raven

Girl you know I shouldn't have loved you

Yeah, but I gotta leave you

When my restless heart says goodbye

Everybody knows my name

I'm Johnny Raven

(It's Johnny Raven)

yeah, yeah by abd by

(It's Johnny Raven)

I'm gonna fly

When you cry part of me's gonna die
