Letra

Álbum: inFinite ( 2017)

Intro

Play 2 times 

verse 1

Johnny Jones woke up one day from dreaming 

Told Bill the bass and soon they had a plan 

He passed it on to Pete and Crazy Benny 

Ah, suddenly they had a band 

Hey Johnny s Band 

He sure knew how to work up a crowd 

The sound that they made put the rest in the shade 

And the word soon got around (Intro riff) 

verse 2

They played every dance hall in the city 

Wrote themselves a cool forty-five 

With a bullet it shot to the top of the pops 

Oh man it was good to be alive 

Hail Johnny s Band 

Hear them on the radio 

Smash after smash now they re rolling in the cash 

Whatever they touch turns to gold 

Solo 

Organ solo               |Guitar solo            (Intro riff) 

verse 3

Benny went down with the hard stuff 

And Pete joined a cult in LA 

Johnny and Bill started going downhill 

And the crowds began melting away 

But hey, it s Johnny s Band 

Playing Saturday nights at The Crown 

The beards may be long and the money s long gone 

It s a wonder that they re still around 

But hey, it s Johnny s Band 

Playing all those wonderful songs 

Making the rounds with that old fashioned sound 

And here we are singing along (End with intro riff)
