Lyrics

[Verse 1]

It's a sleepless night, she's callin' your name

It's a lonely ride, I know how you want her

Again and again, you're chasin' a dream, yeah

But Johnny my friend 'cause she's not what she seems

[Verse 2]

Johnny B. how much there is to see

Just open your eyes and listen to me

Straight ahead, a green light turns to red

Oh, why can't you see, oh, Johnny B.?

[Verse 3]

And when you drive her home, is she sittin' real close

Does she make you weak, well that's the way that she wants you

You're strung out again, she's taken you over

You've been here before, why can't you let go

[Verse 4]

Johnny B. how much there is to see

Just open your eyes and listen to me

Straight ahead, a green light turns to red

Oh, why can't you see, ooh, Johnny B.?

[Verse 5]

And when she calls your name, my sweet Johnny B.

You can drive all night and you know she'll be waiting

To love you again, her kiss is her poison

Forever inside you, wherever you go

[Verse 6]

Johnny B. how much there is to see

Just open your eyes and listen to me

Straight ahead, a green light turns to red

Oh, why can't you see, oh, Johnny B.?

[Verse 7]

Hey, Johnny B. how much there is to see

Just open your eyes and listen to, just listen to me

Straight ahead, a green light turns to red

Oh, why can't you see, oh, Johnny B.?

[Verse 8]

Oh, can't you see, oh, Johnny B.?

Oh, can't you see?
