Johnny talks too much for you
With rain and the hunger too
It’s adding up and Johnny’s got to go
Well we’ll take him out
In his sleep one night
With the stars and the firelight
It’ll lighten up the days you’ve yet to know
Oh Johnny
Oh Johnny
Oh Johnny
I’m sorry, but your weighing me down and boy you’ve got to go
Johnny don’t you realize
You’re the one who took your life
When you signed your name on the line
Well I aint the one who made it so
You’re a man and you should’ve known
You coming here could shorten up your time
Oh Johnny
Oh Johnny
Oh Johnny
Oh Johnny
I’m sorry, but you’re weighing me down and boy you’ve got to go.
