Johnny
Let me tell you a story
about a friend of mine
When I think of Johnny
I can hardly keep from crying
He was long and lean
With golden hair
texan and mean
You better bewear
I say hey,
hey hey hey
Hey listen to me now
Right down in Deep Ellum
On a starry night
A guitar is paying her dues
delivering the B.B.'s blues
A nice guy walks to the stage,
too white for this place
While everybody laugh
he can strut his stuff
I say hey hey hey hey
Hey listen to me now
You go on the tv
'cause you want
to be a rock star
Acting like a joker
clowning with your guitar
Resign your self to Johnny
he refused to live like that!
The man is waiting for you
he can save you soul
I say hey
hey hey hey
Hey listen to me now
about a friend of mine
When I think of Johnny
I can hardly keep from crying
He was long and lean
With golden hair
texan and mean
You better bewear
I say hey,
hey hey hey
Hey listen to me now
Right down in Deep Ellum
On a starry night
A guitar is paying her dues
delivering the B.B.'s blues
A nice guy walks to the stage,
too white for this place
While everybody laugh
he can strut his stuff
I say hey hey hey hey
Hey listen to me now
You go on the tv
'cause you want
to be a rock star
Acting like a joker
clowning with your guitar
Resign your self to Johnny
he refused to live like that!
The man is waiting for you
he can save you soul
I say hey
hey hey hey
Hey listen to me now
