"Johnny Lightning" lyrics

"Johnny Lightning"

Who can run and hustle women
Wrap 'em round him like a ribbon
Johnny Lightning, Johnny Lightning

Four-star football hero
All them ladies love dear ol'
Johnny Lightning, Johnny Lightning

Bless him, Ma's number one son
Lord, he's the chosen one
Cool, calm, at his best
Set 'em up, he do the rest
Johnny Lightning, Johnny Lightning

Travel 'round and romp and ramble
Love to fight and love to gamble
Johnny Lightning, Johnny Lightning

Fancy dressing Rhodes Scholar
Doesn't mind to lend a dollar
Johnny Lightning, Johnny Lightning

Bless him, Ma's number one son
Lord, he's the chosen one
Cool, calm, at his best
Set 'em up, he do the rest
Johnny Lightning, Johnny Lightning

Who's the new flashy wonder
Mighty strength and voice of thunder
Johnny Lightning, Johnny Lightning

Mountain high, river deep
Ain't a woman that can keep
Johnny Lightning, Johnny Lightning

Bless him, Ma's number one son
Lord, he's the chosen one
Cool, calm, at his best
Set 'em up, he do the rest
Johnny Lightning, Johnny Lightning

Johnny Lightning, Johnny Lightning
Johnny Lightning, Johnny Lightning
Johnny Lightning, Johnny Lightning
Johnny Lightning, Johnny Lightning
Johnny Lightning, Johnny Lightning
