[Verse 1]
He was just fifteen, he was a new trainee
He lied about it for the opportunity
To defend the border his life was sworn
Though not a generation was native born
[Chorus]
Johnee Jingo
Johnee Jingo
[Verse 2]
He had lost the battle but won the war
When the generals said he couldn't fight no more
He was proud and bitter at what he'd done
So he passed it off to his favorite son
[Chorus]
Johnee Jingo
Johnee Jingo
Jingo don't you fight for me
Jingo don't you speak for me
Jingo don't you fight for me
Jingo don't you speak for me
[Bridge]
To the man who owns the land
We're all the same
But when his grip begins to slip
Then he'll be calling out your name
He was just fifteen, he was a new trainee
He lied about it for the opportunity
To defend the border his life was sworn
Though not a generation was native born
[Chorus]
Johnee Jingo
Johnee Jingo
[Verse 2]
He had lost the battle but won the war
When the generals said he couldn't fight no more
He was proud and bitter at what he'd done
So he passed it off to his favorite son
[Chorus]
Johnee Jingo
Johnee Jingo
Jingo don't you fight for me
Jingo don't you speak for me
Jingo don't you fight for me
Jingo don't you speak for me
[Bridge]
To the man who owns the land
We're all the same
But when his grip begins to slip
Then he'll be calling out your name
