"Oh Johnny, Oh Johnny, Oh!" is a popular American song composed by Abe Olman (1887–1984), lyricized by Ed Rose (pseudonym for Edward Smackels, Jr.; 1875–1935),[1] and published by Forster Music Publisher, Inc. The music was copyrighted 7 February 1917 and the copyright was renewed 29 December 1944.[2][3] Under the Copyright Term Extension Act (1998), the sheet music is in the public domain, as is all music published in the U.S. prior to 1923. Its melody and structure form the basis of a self-calling circle dance, using square dance steps and popular in summer camps. Lyrics{{ref begin|20em}}
; 1st verse (16 bars, {{frac|2|4}}, E♭ Major) All the girls are crazy about a certain little lad, Al-tho he's very, very bad, He could be, oh, so good when he wanted to Bad or good he understood 'bout love and other things, For every girl in town followed him around, Just to hold his hand and sing: ; Chorus (32 bars) Oh, Johnny! Oh, Johnny! How you can love! Oh, Johnny! Oh, Johnny! Heavens above! You make my sad heart jump with joy, And when you're near I just Can't sit still a minute. I'm so, Oh, Johnny! Oh, Johnny! Please tell me dear. What makes me love you so? You're not handsome, it's true, But when I look at you, I just, Oh, Johnny! Oh, Johnny! Oh! ; 2nd verse Johnny tried his best to hide from every girl he knew, But even this he couldn't do, For they would follow him most everywhere, Then his friends got him to spend a week or two at home It's worse now than before, 'cause the girl next door hollers thru the telephone: (chorus){{ref end}}{{ref begin|100em}}
; Verse Uncle Sam is calling now for ev'ry mother's son To go get behind a gun and keep Old Glory waving on the sea Now prepare to be right there to help the cause along To every chap you meet when you're on the street You can sing this little song: ; Chorus Oh, Johnny, oh Johnny, why do you lag? Oh, Johnny, oh Johnny, run to your flag You're county's calling can't you hear? Don't stay behind while others do all the fighting, Start to Oh, Johnny! Oh, Johnny! Get right in line, And help to crush to foe. You're a big husky chap, Uncle Sam's in a scrap, You must! Go, Johnny! Go, Johnny! Go!{{ref end}}
; (To the chorus melody) Well, you all join hands as you circle the ring Stop where you are, give your honey a swing Swing that little gal behind you Swing your own, if you have time when you get home Allamain left with the corner gal Do-saw-do with your own Then you all promenade With the sweet corner maid Singing "Oh, Johnny! Oh, Johnny! Oh!"{{ref end}} Inspiration for the songAccording to an August 1945 United Press article, Ed Rose (lyricist) wrote the song when his friends, Mr. and Mrs. John Hansen of Akron, Ohio, began dating while attending college in Indiana. They were so conspicuously in love that Rose, also their classmate, wrote the song about them and presented them with the original manuscript.[4] Notable recordings
