Текст песни: Surabaya Johnny + перевод

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
