Lyrics:
Johnny was a soldier He fought for Britain's crown The king sat on his throne While poor old Johnny, he laid down Johnny had big dreams of fightin', comin home in glory He kissed his mother on the cheek and told her not to worry Johnny he laid down his pen and he picked up a gun He said I'll not be coming home until the war is won Yeah he said I'll not be coming home until the war is won

Great question! We’ll take auditions like this case-by-case, probably an online audition would work best! Let’s chat over email and work something out.
Thanks, Erin!
