Im goin back to Sentimental Johnny
Cause Sentimental Johnny is your man
Sunshine or rain, the mans on his game
The Chairman of the boards
He said Jesus, he walks on water
Not like us, he must have been sober
Marching away, on top of his lake
The Savior of all souls
Leave me to die in the wreckage
As soon as it burns, Ill be gone
Im goin back to Sentimental Johnny (what for?)
To take in all I can (once more!)
To take in all I can (once more!)
Well it was back in good ol 57
When Johnny met Elvis in Memphis
Rockin on sun
Where it all begun
A story yet to end
And by this time, were drinkin up a fever
And in me, he has a true believer
If only I could, just for one word
To live it all again
Leave me to die in the wreckage
As soon as it burns, Ill be gone
Im goin back to Sentimental Johnny (what for?)
To take in all I can (once more!)
To take in all I can (once more!)
Rio, why dont you meet me down in Rio again
Down in Rio, the carnival it never ends
Down in Rio, well find a perfect world in Rio again
Down in Rio, where the women still love their men
Well Johnny, its two in the mornin
Dont you think, its time we should go
Back to our millions of records we love
Back to our sad little homes
That was the last time I saw him
Never, no never no more
I wonder did Jesus, came to redeem him
Save poor Johnnys ol soul
I wonder did Jesus, come to redeem him
Save poor Johnnys ol soul
Leave me to die in the wreckage
As soon as it burns, Ill be gone
Im goin back to Sentimental Johnny (what for?)
To take in all I can (once more!)
To take in all I can (once more!)
