Fast Johnny lyrics

I fell in love with a dark-eyed lady,
She seemed to be on her own,
And from nowhere when i came over -
A princess without a throne.
That night as i was takin` her home,
I got a feelin` that we weren`t alone.
Keep your hands on the wheel, we got a tail there,
Tryin` to put us off the road.
What are you gonna do when a man from her past catches up with you?
What are you gonna do when he wants to make a claim on you?

Fast johnny, i`m flat on the boards -
Fast johnny, i`m cutting the corners -
Fast johnny, i`m closin` the door -
Fast johnny, don`t chase me in your car no more!

You know nobody can drive quite like i can,



Runnin` every red light in town,
We danced on the floor, danced on the street,
Danced as the wheels turned around.
Maybe johnny, you`ll meet your match
When you look into my chevy`s eyes,
Keep your engine hot and running,
`cause this sweet little honey`s gonna take you by surprise.

What are you gonna do when a man from her past catches up with you?
What are you gonna do when he wants to make a claim on you?

Fast johnny, i`m flat on the boards -
Fast johnny, i`m cuttin` the corners -
Fast johnny, i`m closin` the door -
Fast johnny, don`t chase me in your car no more!

Repeat and close
