Intro

Am
                                         G       Am
There was a lad in Glesga town, Ramensky was his name
F             C                G              Am
Johnny didnae know it then but he was set for fame
                                G              Am
He did a wee bit job or two, he blew them open wide
    F                        C                  F          G
But they caught him and they tried him and they bunged him right inside

F                       C        Em
Alley-ee alley-ay alley-oo alley-oh
F                   C
Open up your prison gates
    F            Am
And let Ramensky go

                                              G        Am
And when they let him out he said he'd do his best but then
   F               C               Am         G
He yielded tae temptation and they bunged him in again
Am                                             G    Am
Now Johnny made the headlines, entertained the boys below
        F                  C               F      G       Am
When he climbed up tae the prison roof and gave a one-man show


      F                 C        Em
Alley-ee alley-ay alley-oo alley-oh
F                   C
Open up your prison gates
    F            Am
And let Ramensky go


                                           G     Am
But when the war was raging the brass-hats had a plan
            F         C                Am
Tae purloin some information, but they couldnae find a man

So they nobbled John in prison, asked if he would take a chance
          F                C         F          G        Am
Then they dropped him in a parachute beyond the coast of France


      F                 C        Em
Alley-ee alley-ay alley-oo alley-oh
F                   C
Open up your prison gates
    F            Am
And let Ramensky go


                                       G      Am
Then Johnny was a hero, they shook him by the hand
    F                                         C    Am
For stealing secret documents frae the German High Command

So Johnny was rewarded for the job he did sae well
     F             C               F      G       Am
They granted him a pardon frae the prison and the cell

      F                C        Em
Alley-ee alley-ay alley-oo alley-oh
F                   C
Open up your prison gates
    F            Am
And let Ramensky go

                                          G         Am
But Johnny was in error when he tried his hand once more
         F               C                Am     G         Am
For they caught him at a blastin', and it wasnae worth the score

                                         G         Am
The jury pled for mercy, but the judge's voice was heard
    F               C            G               Am
Ten years without remission, and that's my final word
                                             G               Am
Ten years, my lord, that's far too long, wee Johnny cried in vain
    F              C               G              Am
For if you send me up for ten I'll never come out again

                                        G              Am
Oh give me another chance, my lord, I'm tellin' you no lie
    F                         G                    Am
But if you send me up for ten I'll sicken and I'll die

      F                C        Em
Alley-ee alley-ay alley-oo alley-oh
F                   C
Open up your prison gates
    F            Am
And let Ramensky go

                                          G         Am
Now Peterhead's a fortress, its walls are thick and stout
       F                                C         G       Am
But it couldnae hold wee Johnny when he felt like walking out
                                          G    Am
Five times he took a powder, he left them in a fix
    F              C                 F       G        Am
And every day they sweat and pray in case he makes it six

      F                C        Em
Alley-ee alley-ay alley-oo alley-oh
F                   C
Open up your prison gates
    F            Am
And let Ramensky go
