Johnny was a soldier with the Allies
Johnny was a soldier all the way
Johnny was a soldier with a fun side
Johnny liked to laugh a lot each day
Johnny met a girl who was a beauty
Johnny never thought to live in sin
""Do you take this girl?""
""Yes I take this girl""
Johnny had a next of kin
They were happy as they were
So everything around would change
But they would never, ever change
It ain't 1918 except for these two-it ain't 1918...
Everybody in Missouri knows them
Everybody there has seen their car
Everybody seen their Stanley Steamer
Everybody knows It's Johnny's car
Wave as you see Johnny drive to market
Watch a bit of past go steaming by
Johnny and his bride
Johnny and his car
without a change of any kind
And they were happy as they were
Everything around had changed
But they had never, ever changed
It ain't 1918 except for there two-it ain't 1918...
Many people in St. Lou are wealthy
A lady by the name of Miller is
Wouldn't it be nice to help out Johnny
Kinda play a real life Santa Claus
She and many other St. Lou people
Bought ol Johnny quite a fancy car
And a modern home
Threw away his comb
Bought his wife a Paris scarf
Johnny thanked the St. Lou folk
But told them in a voice so sad
That he would rather stay as is
The people of St. Lou were mad, and they said
It ain't 1918 for us or for you
If we can't enjoy it...
Then neither will you
Sparks is an American musical duo formed in Los Angeles in 1970 by brothers Ron and Russell Mael. Known for their innovative style that blends pop, rock, synth-pop, and cabaret, Sparks have released over 25 albums in a career spanning over half a century. Russell Mael's high-pitched vocals and the memorable melodies composed by Ron, often accompanied by the pianist's signature unchanging facial expression, have become distinctive elements of their sound. Among their most famous songs are "This Town Ain't Big Enough for the Both of Us", "The Number One Song in Heaven" and "When Do I Get to Sing 'My Way'?".
