She had left him lost and broken like no other had before
And now his heart was just a token of the pain it had endured
And his memories were clouded with all the hurtful things she'd said
Yes for all intent and purpose he might just as well been dead
And some people claim they still bear him call her name
Hey hey Maureen swear they hear it just that plain
Deep in the night Lord and sometimes right at dawn
See his body died some years ago but around here Mr Johnson's love lives on
He seemed far away and distant with that cold and silent stare
Never moving never speaking and just barely breathing air
No one really knew her reason and who can judge her night or wrong
The only true and solemn fact is the man we'd known was all but gone
And some people claim...

Sissy Thomson said she'd seen him late that night on Shelby Road
Bout a mile from there they found him it seems he'd died out in the snow
I hear the preacher at the service say from love he's finally free
But I say love it knows no season it haunts the soul eternally
And some people claim...
Yws his body died some years ago but around here Mr Johnson's love lives on
