Today
I met John
In a place
He's come from

He likes to hang around the bars
He likes to play on his guitar
But he's strange

The babes
Wait for John
In the street
Way downtown

They like to hear him play his songs
But they don't know that he's a bomb
Well, I do

And if you wanna cry
John is here tonight
And I think he knows why you're here
He will break you down

And in the morning while I was walking on down the line
I met John
I met John
He was singing outside in the gentle light
Little John
Little John yeah

I'll get Johnny
I'll get Johnny

Today
I met John
In the place
He came from

But should I told him what you've said?
Should I told him that you've stayed?
Well, I don't know

Ohhh wait
Wait for John
I am
Highly strung
If I catch him again
He will kneel
I promise I'm not lying

Yes if you wanna cry
John is here tonight
And I think he knows why you're here
He will break you down


And in the morning I was walking on down the line
I met John
I met John
And he's running outside in the morning light
Little John
Little John yeah

I'll get Johnny
I'll get Johnny
