The Last Days Of Johnny Songtext
von Andy and the Rockets

Johnny sat down
In the Heartland Cafe
All dressed in black
With a shadow above his head

Last night was weary
He didn′t get much sleep
He was way in too deep
The cold wind on the outside
Brought dust to the window sill

A storm in his heart was raging
Though the room was still

In his dreams he rode into the setting sun
Fighting the good fight is always right

It's not easy to cope when you′re alone
Life is nothing but a roller coaster
When you're in and out of trouble
And dealing with imposters


Where do you go when your sky turns dark
No easy answer for the tears he cries
This is the last days of Johnny
(The last days of Johnny)
He's ready to say good bye

Johnny left town and the Heartland Cafe
Still dressed in black
With a shadow above his head

Thinking of his future
It doesn′t seem to be bright
Thought′s coming back into light

A black and white photograph
Of his family comes to mind
His brother and his sisters
And the mother who always was so kind

But the father rode into the setting sun
To find his pay dirt ready to fight

It's not easy to cope when you′re alone
Life is nothing but a roller coaster
When you're in and out of trouble
And dealing with imposters


Where do you go when your sky turns dark
No easy answer for the tears he cries
This is the last days of Johnny
(The last days of Johnny)
He′s ready to say good bye
This is the last days of Johnny
(The last days of Johnny)
He's ready for one last cry

There is no easy way to say good bye
When you′re up against the wall
So tell all the people that I said hi
This is the final curtain call

Where do you go when your sky turns dark
No easy answers for the tears he cries
This is the last days of Johnny
(The last days of Johnny)
He's ready to say good bye
This is the last days of Johnny
(The last days of Johnny)
He's ready to say good bye
