Let Johnny Play

Turn on that old radio And I hear Johnny sing Playing in the old way When a simple man was king I tired to walk the line But I stumbled and fell Tired to chase my demons But they just led me to hell Now I ain't got no future And sure ain't got no way So just pass me a bottle And let Johnny play I can still hear that train a coming Just like it was yesterday I keep playing to that rhythm Use these tracks to guide my way Maybe one day I'll get to Jackson Just to see that old place Maybe one day I'll see you there Standing with that smile on you face Now I ain't got no future And sure ain't got no way So just pass me a bottle And let Johnny play I got consumed by your fire It burns just like a ring I may not be good at much But darling for you I'll sing So I'll just float down this big river And see where it takes me Cause it seems I was born to ramble And live my life free Now I ain't got no future And sure ain't got no way So just pass me a bottle And let Johnny play
