Shangri-Las - Long Live Our Love w/ LYRICS

Long Live Our Love - "The Shangri-Las" - Peak Position;#33 in 1966

When Johnny comes marching home again, hurray hurrah

Chorus;
Long live our lo-o-ove, long live our happiness,
Heres a toast to happiness,
Long live our love.

When we were childhood sweethearts,
We had made a simple vow,
We vowed to love each other,
And I know we won't stop now.

Chorus;

But somethings come between us,
And its not another girl,
But A lot of people need you,
There is trouble in the world.

Spoken:
Its the fighting, that has come between us, and its
taken you far far away.
But please don't wonder if Ill be faithful, your in my heart both
night and day.
So, darling, I send my love to you, while you are fighting
overseas,
And, I know one day, if we are lucky, God will send you back to me.

Chorus;

Spoken by lead singer Mary Weiss while rest of group sings intro;

Please Lord Don't Let anyting happen to him Please.
I'm waiting for you Johnny, Im waiting. .

Chorus;

I hate to say this, since I am a Shangri-Las fan, but the song takes the wrong side in the Vietnam War, which I demonstrated against in my youth. I'll forgive them, however. A lot of people mistakingly supported Lyndon Johnson

My friend John Korinek, whom I smoked my first cigarette with, did not come home. His coffin was returned to his new bride and he is buried in a little country graveyard south of Friend, Nebraska. I can't help thinking of him and his 56 Ford Fairlane with straight pipes. When Mary cries for Johnny to come home again, I think of John Korinek.

NOT SOME MINDLESS VIDEO.
