歌曲名 Johnny's Blues(Album Version)

歌手名 Joe Ely

Well Johnny come in last night

Man he was an awful sight

The Bartender said Hey Johnny

There'll be no band tonight

The piano-man's drunk

He 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 stickin' close to ten

The mailman came runnin' in

He said Any-body here named Johnny

I got a Special deliv'ry for him

It's from a woman he knows

It's from his Bayou Rose

The girl of his dreams

wants a wedding ring

Love Rosie

I've got a letter for him

Well Johnny jumped up from his beer

Told the mailman Yes I'm here

An' then he read it out loud to the bar room 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 rainin'

The drummer was drummn' just like and insane man

They tore off the roof they knocked down the doors

And Johnny an' his bride drove away in her Ford

Slappin' the dash to the beat of the band

Draggin' behind them a string of tin cans

And they ain't been back yet but I know when they do

Johnny's gonna play some of the sweetest blues
