Paganistan: Notes from the Secret Commonwealth
In Which One Midwest Man-in-Black Confers, Converses & Otherwise Hob-Nobs with his Fellow Hob-Men (& -Women) Concerning the Sundry Ways of the Famed but Ill-Starred Tribe of Witches.
Gently Johnny
Gently Johnny is a Beltane classic. (You can hear Paul Giovanni's setting from The Wicker Man here.) What follows is my male-male version, singable (of course) to the same tune. If we're true to the Old Ways, we will invariably find that the Lore can expand to include the entire range of human experience.
Gently Johnny
I put my hand upon his shoulder,
and he said: Be a little bolder.
I put my hand upon his knee,
and he said: Do you want to see?
Gently, gently, gently Johnny,
gently Johnny, my jingolo;
gently, gently, gently Johnny,
gently Johnny, my jingolo.
I put my hand upon his chest,
and he said: Do you want the rest?
I put my hand upon his waist,
and he said: Do you want a taste?
Gently, gently, gently Johnny,
gently Johnny, my jingolo;
gently, gently, gently Johnny,
gently Johnny, my jingolo.
I put my hand upon his thigh,
and he said: Do you want to try?
I put my hand upon his belly,
and he said: Do you want to fill me?
Gently, gently, gently Johnny,
gently Johnny, my jingolo;
gently, gently, gently Johnny,
gently Johnny, my jingolo.
