Johnny Too Blue Lyrics
Johnny used to babysit
He was the misfit
Momma's little brother in his military outfit
Turning all the lights out
Smoking on the floor
We used to listen to him listening to the Doors
My little brother must have been about two
He said
"Johnny, you're the meaner man I never knew."
Oh
Johnny dropped bombs on Viet Nam
Couldn't really look back
Never really came back
Son don't you quit
Get a handle on it
Boy settle down, they know you too well in this town
Got himself a wife
Got himself a daughter
She must be grown now;
He never even saw her
Oooh, Johnny too blue
Johnny be a good kid
Do like your daddy did
The man of the hosue can't afford to be stupid
Driving down the road in your momma's big car
Johnny don't you go too far
Teenage girlfriend
She was one of my friends
Cooking Johnny supper in the little apartment
They went one night
To get a cup of coffee
Johnny got angry...
He hauled off
He hit her upside the head
Wasn't really murder
He caught her on the temple
Didn't mean to hurt her
Johnny got out after serving three to five

Still talking to her like she was still alive
Why?
Johnny goodbye
Johnny be a good kid
Do like your daddy did
The man of the hosue can't afford to be stupid
Driving down the road in your momma's big car
Johnny don't you go too far
Ooooh
Johnny be a good kid
Do like your daddy did
The man of the hosue can't afford to be stupid
Driving down the road in your momma's big car
