I'm goin' back to Sentimental Johnny Cause Sentimental Johnny is your man Sunshine or rain, the man's on his game The Chairman of the boards He said Jesus, he walks on water Not like us, he must have been sober Marching away, on top of his lake The Savior of all souls
Leave me to die in the wreckage As soon as it burns, I'll be gone I'm goin' back to Sentimental Johnny (what for?) To take in all I can (once more!) To take in all I can (once more!)
Well it was back in good ol' 57 When Johnny met Elvis in Memphis Rockin' on sun Where it all begun A story yet to end And by this time, we're drinkin' up a fever And in me, he has a true believer If only I could, just for one word To live it all again
Leave me to die in the wreckage As soon as it burns, I'll be gone I'm goin' back to Sentimental Johnny (what for?) To take in all I can (once more!) To take in all I can (once more!)
Rio, why don't you meet me down in Rio: again Down in Rio, the carnival it never ends Down in Rio, we'll find a perfect world in Rio: again Down in Rio, where the women still love their men
Well Johnny, it's two in the mornin' Don't you think, it's time we should go Back to our millions of records we love Back to our sad little homes That was the last time I saw him Never, no never no more I wonder did Jesus, came to redeem him Save poor Johnny's ol' soul I wonder did Jesus, come to redeem him Save poor Johnny's ol' soul
Leave me to die in the wreckage As soon as it burns, I'll be gone I'm goin' back to Sentimental Johnny (what for?) To take in all I can (once more!) To take in all I can (once more!)
