I saw someone driving Johnny's Chevrolet I shook my head, I don't know what to say I said they're sure that we won't see him anymore Because they threw away the keys to Johnny's door Johnny used to walk like he's walking on splinters Talk like he's got a match in his teeth A sure-fire winner but it seemed to me He was turning into someone that he didn't want to be You used to look so golden Now you look so grey I smile when I see you but You turn your eyes away Johnny never worked but he's always got money Hot televisions and stolen cars You know so much but you didn't know nothing Tried to sell a key to a cop in a bar Johnny oh Johnny you're living so lonely Acting so tough but you're looking so scared Don't you see it ain't your drugs and your money It's about love and it's about care You used to look so golden Now you look so grey I smile when I see you but You turn your eyes away
