Johnny Songtext
von The Celibate Rifles

I saw someone driving Johnny′s Chevrolet
I shook my head, I don't know what to say
I said they′re sure that we won't see him anymore
Because they threw away the keys to Johnny's door

Johnny used to walk like he′s walking on splinters
Talk like he′s got a match in his teeth
A sure-fire winner but it seemed to me
He was turning into someone that he didn't want to be


You used to look so golden
Now you look so grey
I smile when I see you but
You turn your eyes away

Johnny never worked but he′s always got money
Hot televisions and stolen cars
You know so much but you didn't know nothing
Tried to sell a key to a cop in a bar

Johnny oh Johnny you′re living so lonely
Acting so tough but you're looking so scared
Don′t you see it ain't your drugs and your money
It's about love and it′s about care


You used to look so golden
Now you look so grey
I smile when I see you but
You turn your eyes away
