Testo Johnny's Blues - Joe Ely
Testo della canzone Johnny's Blues (Joe Ely), tratta dall'album Joe Ely (2022 Remaster)
Well, Johnny come in last night
Man, he was an awful sight
The bartender said, "Hey, Johnny
There'll be no band tonight
And the piano man's drunk
He's been down in the dumps
The drummer's in bed
He got a pain in his head
No, Johnny, there'll be no band tonight"
The clock was ticking close to ten
The mailman came running in
Said, "Anybody here named Johnny?
I got a special delivery for him
It's from a woman he knows
It's from his Bayou Rose
The girl of his dreams
Owns a wedding ring
Love, Rosie, I got a letter for him"
And Johnny jumped up from his beer
Told the mailman, "Yes, I'm here"
And then he read it out loud
To the barroom crowd
But before they had a chance to cheer
He said, "Call up the band
I'm a happy man
I want them to play
On my wedding day"
When he told them
They had a chance to cheer
The piano man came
Even though it was raining
The drummer was drumming
Just like an insane man
They tore off the roof
They knocked down the doors
And Johnny and his bride
Drove away in her Ford
Slapping the dash
To the beat of the band
And dragging behind
Them a string of tin cans
And he ain't been back yet
But I know when he do
Johnny gonna play some of the sweetest blues
