Lyrics:
sheriff and police are ridin' after me
And I feel like I've gotta travel on
Papa writes to Johnny, Johnny can't come home
No, Johnny can't come home,
old town too long
And I feel like I gotta travel on
Poppa writes to Johnny, but Johnny can't come home
Johnny can't come home, no, Johnny can't
from mixin'Tanqueray and wine
He got a gun shot a night clerk now they call'm Johnny 99
Down in the part of town where when you hit a red light you
them old songs of daddy's
Seems like every one comes true
Lord, please help me
Do I have to be the living proof
Why just the other night after the show
of gratification in some twisted mind
Johnny Guitar Watson: YEAH!
Senator Trible: Now, the effects of such lyrics on a well adjusted child may not be cataclysmic
walked up and took him by the arm
He said Johnny, come and go along with me Poor boy
Johnny, come and walk along with me
John Hardy stood in his old jail
and took him by the arm
He said Johnny, come and go along with me Poor boy
Johnny, come and walk along with me
John Hardy stood in his old jail cell
(Here we go!)
Here we go (Here we go!)
'Hini Jonez, Johnny Pub and Stanstro
Come on the track like "dun di dun DUN!"
Board shorts, boat shoes; I told you
Johnny, you've gone too far
Johnny come back real soon
Johnny, you've gone too far
Johnny come back real soon
Johnny, you've gone too far
Johnny come back
as they come
He shot five men near the Tennessee line
And now he’s a fugitive on the run
Johnny made his way home to Chicago
Where the wind blows cold
about it lately
I just been thinking about it lately
I just been thinking about it lately
I just been thinking about it lately
I just been thinking about
town too long
And I feel like I've gotta travel on
Papa writes to Johnny, but Johnny can't come home
Johnny can't come home, no, Johnny can't come
and shock it
Don't care who's saying stop it
You're lucky that the little pussy didn't
Get lit up like a rocket
They say that real recognise real
How comes
him by the arm
He said Johnny, come and go along with me
Poor boy, Johnny, come and walk along with me
John Hardy stood in his old jail cell
Hey, look yonder, tell me what's that you see
Marching to the fields of Concord?
It looks like Handsome Johnny with a musket in his hand,
to be Superman
Johnny Bench and then George Jones
But lately I've been finding
All my heroes closer to home
I've got a life I'm loving
Got some children
pushing you down
Come on Johnny, walk 'em out of this town
Someone thought John could use a vacation
Called the cops, lucky he's Caucasian
Oh four cars
that you chose
Come on, here He stands
With a greater plan
And all you wanna do is
Go and take control
Man, love's not a what
But a who
Even when you
Little johnny's all messed up
'Cause first he jumped and then he looked
Those tracks of time those tracks are mine
Little johnny's occupied
Come
so afraid I'll lose you
If I can't seduce you
Is there something wrong?
Johnny come on strong.
Why are you so weird, boy?
Johny are you queer boy?
ambition turned to fire in Johnny's eyes
Gave Mary the keys said run to the truck lock yourself in and don't come out
She said Heavens to Betsy you better
captain Kid himself,
Whisky Johnny.
He'll come at midnight to drink my hell,
Whisky Johnny.
And that damned corpse will come and say:
You're Captain Kid's
Runaway...his carrier bag escapes and wraiths the half-moon.
Runaway...slipping into his uneasy sleep
Well, the tide comes in tonight
And Johnny's out of sight.
Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies
"Be-Bop-A-Lula," "Baby What I Say"
Here comes Johnny singing, "I Gotta Woman"
Down in the tunnels,
