Here's one for all the Johnny boys of the world - you know the type, rebellious, hair full of gel and a leather jacket . They might own a motorcycle or pick fights in bars, which makes them very attractive to girls.
The famous sisters recorded this in 1962, but Glen Miller was first to perform this song with his orchestra in 1938.
I especially like the lines "you make my sad heart jump with joy" and "you're not handsome, it's true".
(Ed Rose / Abe Olman)
Oh, Johnny! Oh, Johnny!
How you can love
Oh, Johnny! Oh, Johnny!
Heavens above
You make my sad heart jump with joy
And when you're near I just can't sit still a minute
I'm so, Oh, Johnny! Oh, Johnny!
Please tell me dear
What makes me love you so?
You're not handsome, it's true
But when I look at you
I just, Oh, Johnny!
Oh, Johnny! Oh!
da-da-da
All the girls are crazy about a certain little lad
Although he's very very bad
He could be oh so good when he wanted to
Bad or good he understood about love & other things
For every girl in town followed him around
just to hold his hand and sing
Oh, Johnny!
Oh, Johnny Johnny!
How you can love
Oh, Johnny!
Oh, Johnny Johnny!
Heavens above, way above
You make my sad heart jump with joy
And when you're near I just can't sit still another minute
Oh, Johnny!
Oh, Johnny Johnny!
Please tell me dear
What makes me love you so?
You're not handsome, it is true
But when I look at you
I just, Oh, Johnny Johnny Johnny! My!
da-da-da
Johnny, Oh! Johnny, Oh!
Johnny, Oh! Johnny, Oh!
Johnny, Oh! Johnny, Oh!
Johnny, Oh! Johnny, Oh!
Oh Johnny! Please tell me dear
What makes me love you so?
You're not handsome it is true
But when I look at you
I just, Oh, Johnny!
