Now Johnny was a good old boy
I remember when he showed me his brand new toy
"It's fast" he said, all shiny and red
The next time I saw it…old Johnny was dead

Now Johnny just loved to fix 'em
Every chance he got he'd mix 'em
Chasin' this with that, you know where that's at
And now old Johnny's…a real gone cat

You better stop before the light turns blue
Look out, someone's watching you
Be careful what you say and do
One's too many after one or two
You know it's true, it's up to you
To stop before the light turns blue

Now Johnny, he had a dream
To ride one long and black
Well, the dream came true, but it's a nightmare too
Old Johnny never dreamed…he'd be ridin' in the back

Now Johnny knew all about drivin'
But he was out of control, no jivin'
You can't be drinkin' if you don't be thinkin'
Or you just might not be…arrivin'
