Johnny's Holiday

Paul Hewitt and John Grounds c. 2017

All aboard for Johnny’s holiday, Mr. Gibson comes along to play
Where would they be without their songs?
Off to London, where he went to stay, always has some cheerful things to say
So glad we tagged along!

There she is in Mayfair, drinks at Ronnie’s pub
Who’s that girl he’s thinking of?

Meanwhile back in sultry Mexico, Conchas Chinas, pobre Pabalo
December just drifts by like a sail
Out in balmy blue Bandaras Bay, as the ebb tide gently pulls away
It’s off to see the whales!

Girl of Guadeloupe, Margarita days
What is there not here to love?

I have the feeling that Christmas is waiting alone, and calling me home
I feel the wings of angels, I’m dreaming of all that I’ve loved before and so much more than I can say

Natural history, then to Farmacy, Oxford Street and Ivy hopefully
Stopping for scones in Battersea
Wrapped in season so sensational, skating on our recreational
Time to rest and make the wreath!

Thank you, Johnny Ringo, lovely to be here
What's that mystery sound I hear?

Johnny's Holiday

Studio recording from 1983.  Cheap little drum machines and synths.
