"Jenny & Johnny" lyrics

Jenny was a live-wire
She would dance along the open road
Floating like a wildflower
Caught in a breeze with nowhere to go
Though Jenny never really had a plan
Love was never heard to understand
But she was only looking for a certain kind of man

And Johnny was a renegade
He would drink and fight and he'd always say
He's a sinner searching for a saint
But right now, he'd take just about anything
'Cause Johnny was a gentle kind of man
He would always offer you his hand
But he was only looking for a lover, not a friend

But they'd always say
One day, love will come along
And take your breath away
One day, it won't take long

Frank and Alice got engaged
They threw a party down by the old time lake
And Jenny came to show her face
And that was the night when everything changed
'Cause Johnny couldn't look away
And she laughed and smiled and gave a wave
And Johnny came and took her by the hand
Asked her if she would like to dance
And Jenny wasn't long before she answered with a "yes"

But they'd always say
One day, love will come along
And take your breath away
One day, it won't take long

It was just like they would always say

But they'd always say
One day, love will come along
And take your breath away
One day, and it won't take long, na na na na na
One day, love will come along
And take your breath away
One day, and it won't take long

It was just like they would always say
'Cause Jenny was a live-wire
And Johnny was a renegade
