Mr. Johnny knows that book just like the back of his hand Trust in the lord, man, he'll take you to the promised land As he shakes the bible in his hand Mr. Johnny's got his tent and he's got his fans Fancy cars in the driveway and the people say Look at this They don't know his ignorance is bliss Screaming "love thy neighbor" as he laughs at midgets on TV Thumbing the cross around his neck and trying sobriety He looks so peculiar through his specs, 'cause he still can't see Is it clear to anyone but me? Is he kidding anyone but me? Mr. Johnny knows not much and he knows it well Two types if people, those to heaven and those to hell He takes a drag but he doesn't inhale Somewhere down that long tough and winding path Mr Johnny's golden rule turn the water green crimson black His fundamentals are a thing of the past Teaching the children all the virtues of equality Boy tuck your shirt tail in, no room for minorities He looks so peculiar through his specs cause he still can't see Is he kidding anyone but me? Is it clear to anyone but me? Mr. Johnny raises his brow as the sun goes down Through this strange cacophony he hears the trumpet sound And then he smiles as his feet leave the ground Screaming "love thy neighbor" as he laughs at midgets on tv Thumbing the cross around his neck, he's trying sobriety Looks so peculiar through his specs because he still can't see Is he kidding anyone but me? Is it clear to anyone but me?
