Free and untamed that´s how I´ve grown
Settling down ain´t my nature
Roots I´ll never own
Oh your smile
But tell me, ain´t your child

How can you cage a bird
Born to be wild

(Refrain)
I´m Johnny Raven by and by
Oh, I´m going to leave yoour nest girl
Another nest to try
Ooh Johnny Raven
Girl you know I shouldn´t have loved you
Yeah, but I gotta leave yoou
When my restless heart says goodbye

Look at you little girl
You feel love so deep
If I could change in a second
I´d change for you like that
Stay right here for keeps
But I´m home free for no thrills

Stray I will
Seems I gotta need one girl
Never can feel

(Refrain)
Yeah I´m Johnny Raven by and by
Oh, I´m going to leave yoour nest girl
Another nest to try
Ooh Johnny Raven
Girl you know I shouldn´t have loved you
Yeah, but I gotta leave yoou
When my restless heart says goodbye

Everybody knows my name
I´m Johnny Raven yeah, yeah by abd by
I´m gonna fly
When you cry part of me´s gonna die
