RoseThorn - Hey Johnny

He was a man named Johnny up from New Orleans
He was running from the blues trying to find his peace
He was a straight shooter had a wedding ring
He was gonna find a girl willing to marry him
(He had) some cash worked nine till five
On a vacay of his otherwise vacant life
And poor Johnny he had no idea
The disaster that awaited him in NYC
Hey Johnny don't you see what's new
Up in NYC all the girls love you
Hey Johnny don't they seem true oh
Hey Johnny I see what you do
You're using drugs and booze to dim your blues
Hey Johnny do you like your new self, oh
He'd enter a pub and light a cigarette
He'd order a pint and drown his fear in threat
He'd have arm candy, one limb was not enough
The room would get all tense when we heard him huff
Hey Johnny don't you see what's new
Up in NYC all the girls love you
Hey Johnny don't they seem true oh
Hey Johnny I see what you do
You're using drugs and booze to dim your blues
Hey Johnny do you like your new self, oh
'Hey Johnny your past you can't forget
Johnny your dreams will crumble dead
Johnny your past you can't forget
Johnny your dreams will crumble'
Hey Johnny don't you see what's new
Up in NYC all the girls love you
Hey Johnny don't they seem true oh
Hey Johnny I see what you do
You're using drugs and booze to dim your blues
Hey Johnny do you like your new self, oh
'Hey Johnny your past you can't forget
Johnny your dreams will crumble dead
Johnny your past you can't forget
Johnny your dreams will crumble'
