Johanna

Held your heart out to the boy in the band

And held out for a good thing

Spent your summer driving down 16th with a dream and a hope for a ring

Oh Johanna, you can’t cry pretty when you’re left with a shattered heart

Oh Johanna, you can’t act like you didn’t know it from the start

He told ya he didn’t like to go party

But he came home smelling like booze

And there were so many nights you stayed up waiting

But he rarely ever came through

Oh Johanna, you can’t wear white

If he’s making you feel so blue

Oh Johanna, you know he’s lying to you

Oh, you’re a good good girl Johanna

Don’t let him take advantage

Of ya, have more self respect

And get yourself the hell out of it

Oh, he is blinding you, Johanna

He thinks that he has ya

Don’t go wasting your time

And don’t keep telling him that it’s fine

He says that you’re the only one he’s loving

But his lips are stained her red

And you watch all of the money that he’s spending

But it’s not for you or him

Oh Johanna, you better pack your bags and run real far away

Oh Johanna, it’s only gonna hurt if you stay

Oh Johanna, it might sound crazy but a friend’s gotta tell the truth

Oh Johanna, I don’t think he loves you
