You know the pictures we used to paint on the outside.

And all the fine songs we used to sing on the outside.

But coming in against isn't that bad.



Johnny, don't break your mother's heart, Johnny.



It seems a lifetime should go to show that the outside

Should paint a picture to let us know that the inside

Isn't that bad a place now I should know?

It's bound to lift your spirits when you're low.

Coming in again isn't that bad.



Johnny, don't break your mother's heart. It's your mother's heart, Johnny.

Johnny, don't tear the family apart. You'll break your mothers heart, Johnny.

Won't you come back in?
