Jonny Was Paroles

I say Ooh, you should've seen him

Walked right past ya

You could not believe it

Lyin' on the street corner wearin' next to nothin'

Yet he sports a smile



And all the times

You bow your head and look away

You cross the street, yeah, just to get away

He can't help but feel ashamed cuz
Jonny Was, a street walker, Ooooooh



He moves around

To a new location

Town to town

To find his next vacation

In his ripped up jeans and t-shirt

Pack of smokes on the side



How about a dime

To help him get a bus ride

Maybe a dollar

To help him stay the night

Anywhere but on the cold streets

Not in an alley or the cops beat



Jonny Was

Yeah Jonny Was

Jonny Was a street walker, Ooooooh
