Where Ya Been Johnny?

¿Dónde has estado Johnny?

Where Ya Been Johnny?

¿Dónde has estado, mi Johnny, Johnny? ¿Y dónde has estado, mi Johnny-O?So where have ya been my Johnny, Johnny? And where have ya been my Johnny-O?

Fuiste al orfanato. ¿Estuviste allí jugando con las chicas?You've been down to the orphanage. Were ya down there messing with the girls?
Puedo decir que estuviste allí, John, porque te veo de regreso con el cabello rizado.I can tell ya been there John, for I see you're back with your hair in curls.
¿Las monjas te persiguieron, John? ¿O pudiste robar un beso?Did the nuns they chase ya John? Or were you able to steal a kiss?
¿O Sister Kearney te golpeó? No vengas a mi mesa luciendo así.Or did Sister Kearney rough ya up? Don't come to my table looking like this.

[Estribillo:][Chorus:]
¿Dónde has estado, mi Johnny, Johnny? ¿Dónde has estado, mi Johnny-O?Where have ya been my Johnny, Johnny? Where have ya been my Johnny-O?
Fuiste allí con las chicas. ¿Te lavaste bien la nariz?You've been down there with the girls. Did ya wash the germs right off of your nose?

Fuiste al tabernero. Porque te veo un poco angustiado.You've been down to the publican. For I see you look a might distressed.
Tus ropas están desgarradas, tus zapatos desgastados,Your clothes are tattered, your shoes are worn,
y has vomitado sobre tu mejor traje de domingo.and you've spewed up on your Sunday best.
¿No quieres ser un buen chico, inteligente en la escuela y profundo?Don't you want to be a good boy, smart in school, and be profound?
Levántate de mi silla, deja que el Sr. McGuire se siente.Get your ass up off of my chair, and you let Mr. McGuire sit down.

[Estribillo][Chorus]

¿Y dónde has estado, mi Johnny, Johnny? ¿Y dónde has estado, mi Johnny-O?And where have ya been my Johnny, Johnny? And where have ya been my Johnny-O?

Ahora el Sr. McGuire te llevará, porque no criaré a un niño pagano.Now Mr. McGuire is takin' you, for I won't raise a heathen child.
Te estamos enviando a un hogar, no puedes vivir aquí, eres demasiado salvaje.We're putting you into a home, you can't live here, you're far too wild.
¿No crees que te gustará allí? Actúas como un criminal, es lo que mereces.Don't you think you'll like it there? You act like a criminal, it's what you get.
Necesitas una buena reforma. Te molerán hasta que les agradezcas por ello.You're in need of good reform. They'll pound you 'til you thank 'em for it.

[Estribillo][Chorus]

¿Y dónde has estado, mi Johnny, Johnny? ¿Y dónde has estado, mi Johnny-O?And where have ya been my Johnny, Johnny? And where have ya been my Johnny-O?
¿Y dónde has estado, mi Johnny, Johnny? ¿Y dónde has estado, mi Johnny-O?And where have ya been my Johnny, Johnny? And where have ya been my Johnny-O?
