Well, Johnny come in last night
2
Man, he was an awful sight
3
The bartender said, "Hey Johnny!
4
There'll be no band tonight"
5
"The piano-man's drunk
6
He been down in the dumps
7
The drummer's in bed
8
He got a pain in his head
9
No Johnny
10
There'll be no band tonight"
11
The clock was stickin' close to ten
12
The mailman came runnin' in
13
He said, "Any-body here named Johnny?
14
I got a special deliv'ry for him"
15
"It's from a woman he knows
16
It's from his Bayou Rose
17
The girl of his dreams
18
wants a wedding ring"
19
Love, Rosie
20
"I've got a letter for him"
21
Well Johnny jumped up from his beer
22
Told the mailman, "Yes I'm here"
23
An' then he read it out loud to the bar room crowd
24
But before they had a chance to cheer
25
He said "Call up the band
26
I'm a happy man
27
I want them to play
28
On my wedding day"
29
When he told them
30
They had a chance to cheer
31
The piano-man came even though it was rainin'
32
The drummer was drummn' just like an insane man
33
They tore off the roof, they knocked down the doors
34
And Johnny an' his bride drove away in her Ford
35
Slappin' the dash to the beat of the band
36
Draggin' behind them a string of tin cans
37
And they ain't been back yet but I know when they do
38
Johnny's gonna play some of the sweetest blues
all just to get to you - bruce springste...
