"Johnny's Got A Pistol" lyrics
Johhny grew up in a trailer park
On the edge of town where the streets are dark
His daddy was a hard drinkin' railroad man
His momma waited tables down at Pancake Land
Betty grew up behind a big iron gate
Steeped in tradition and social place
Everybody's choice for homecoming queen
Til' she ran away with Johnny, at 17
Betty's got a Honda and Johnny's got a pistol
It only shoots water but it sure looks real
Service station [?] nightmare, rollin' down the highway
The talk of the town at the evening meal
For a month and a half things went their way
Never thought about the price they'd pay
At mile marker 10 they ran outta luck
They were fixin' a flat when the law pulled up
Betty got a lawyer and [?] Johnny got a sentence
He's down at Fort [?] doing 5 to 10
Spendin' all his time scammin' and a-schemin'
Dreamin' up a way to be with Betty again
Pride of the prison ministry
Johnny got religious and [?] they let him preach
At local churches, he's a-packin' 'em in
Warnin' all the kids not to be like him
Hopewell Baptist late last night
Wasn't a single dry eye in sight
When God wasn't lookin' Johnny, he slipped off
To a getaway Honda in the parking lot
Betty's got a Honda and Johnny's got a pistol
It only shoots water but it sure looks real
Service station [?] nightmare, rollin' down the highway
The talk of the town at the evening meal
Betty's got a Honda, Johnny's got a pistol
It only shoots water but it sure looks real
Service station [?] nightmare, rollin' down the highway
The talk of the town at the evening meal
On the edge of town where the streets are dark
His daddy was a hard drinkin' railroad man
His momma waited tables down at Pancake Land
Betty grew up behind a big iron gate
Steeped in tradition and social place
Everybody's choice for homecoming queen
Til' she ran away with Johnny, at 17
Betty's got a Honda and Johnny's got a pistol
It only shoots water but it sure looks real
Service station [?] nightmare, rollin' down the highway
The talk of the town at the evening meal
For a month and a half things went their way
Never thought about the price they'd pay
At mile marker 10 they ran outta luck
They were fixin' a flat when the law pulled up
Betty got a lawyer and [?] Johnny got a sentence
He's down at Fort [?] doing 5 to 10
Spendin' all his time scammin' and a-schemin'
Dreamin' up a way to be with Betty again
Pride of the prison ministry
Johnny got religious and [?] they let him preach
At local churches, he's a-packin' 'em in
Warnin' all the kids not to be like him
Hopewell Baptist late last night
Wasn't a single dry eye in sight
When God wasn't lookin' Johnny, he slipped off
To a getaway Honda in the parking lot
Betty's got a Honda and Johnny's got a pistol
It only shoots water but it sure looks real
Service station [?] nightmare, rollin' down the highway
The talk of the town at the evening meal
Betty's got a Honda, Johnny's got a pistol
It only shoots water but it sure looks real
Service station [?] nightmare, rollin' down the highway
The talk of the town at the evening meal
