Poor Johnny - Robert Cray
Have a seat
And I＇ll tell you a tale
It wasn＇t that long ago
About a guy who turned out
To be a cheater got the heater
So the story goes:
He tried the playboy-thing
On two friends
Thinking that they＇d never know
They say he got caught
In a trap and it snapped
He＇s not around anymore
Poor johnny
He came home looking cool one day
Just wasn＇t lucky
To come out that way
Once from the left
Than from the right
They took him down late that night
Now everyone in town
Knew he always played around
But not a word was said
All the money and the clothes
And the cars that he drove
Just kept his ego fed
To his friends he was king
Cause he thought of everything
Except his number one
She had the kids and the house
While he was always out
Leaving his homework undone
Poor johnny
He came home looking cool one day
Just wasn＇t lucky
To come out that way
Once from the left
Than from the right
They took him down late that night
Than one day his luck ran out
When number two found a number
And called his house
WOrd on the street
Is that they talked all night
They had to teach him a lesson
They had to make things right
Poor johnny
He came home looking cool one day
Just wasn＇t lucky
To come out that way
Once from the left
Than from the right
They took him down late that night
Poor johnny
He came home looking cool one day
Just wasn＇t lucky
To come out that way
Once from the left
Than from the right
They took him down late that night
Poor Johnny
Poor Johnny
Poor Johnny
Poor Johnny
Poor Johnny
