  • Johnny was sittin' on the fire escape watchin' the kids playin' down the street
    He called down, "Hey little heroes:
    Summer's long but I guess it ain't very sweet around here anymore"
    Janey sleeps in sheets damp with sweat,
         Johnny sits up alone and watches her dream on, dream on
    And the sister prays for lost souls, then breaks down in the chapel after everyone's gone...
