Slapshot - Johnny Was lyrics

Johnny was a good boy

But got messed up by the wrong crowd

Everybody liked him

And he made his mother proud

But Johnny had a habit

And it wasn't smoking crack

In the wrong place at the wrong time

He took a bullet in the back

Johnny was

Johnny was

Johnny was a gangster

Just 13 with a 45

He was living in a neighborhood where you fight to stay alive

Johnny wouldn't listen

He was told to get away

Now he's learned his lesson

Look what happens when you stay

Johnny was

Johnny was

Johnny was

Johnny was
