Joey By Concrete Blonde

A lot of you will not know this group. They might have only put out 3 albums in the late 80's. The lead singer had an amazing voice. Powerful and intoxicating, full of emotion. I always felt like she was singing to me. The song is Joey by Concrete Blonde. I've changed Joey to Johnny. I don't care if you mind....



Johnny, baby, don't get crazy
Detours, fences
I get defensive

I know you've heard it all before
So I won't say it anymore
I'll just step by and let you fight your secret war
And though I used to wonder why
I used to cry til I was dry
Still sometimes I get a strange pain inside
Oh, Johnny if you're hurtin'
So am I

Johnny, honey, I got the money
All is forgiven
Listen, Listen

And if I seem to be confused
I didn't mean to be with you
And when you said I scared you, well
I guess you scared me too
But we got lucky once before
And I don't wanna close the door
And if you're somewhere out there passed out on the floor
Oh, Johnny, I'm not angry anymore

And if I seem to be confused
I didn't mean to be with you
And when you said I scared you, well
I guess you scared me too
But if it's love you're looking for
Then I can give a little more
And if you're somewhere drunk and passed out on the floor
Oh, Johnny, I'm not angry anymore

Angry anymore
Angry anymore...
