The Lyrics
Despite the title, this is not about Johnnie D. In fact I'm dedicating it to Paul Robinson, who is a big Stephen Stills fan. Thanking everyone en masse for the "Appreciation week" I only found out about yesterday through Paul and Mehli.
My pal Johnnie has a mean streak
I've heard he's cruel to someone near me
Don't know who it is, it's a myst'ry
I tried asking him but he don't hear me
And I'll keep on asking his friends
Searching for all the loose ends
It's my goal, I intend to really find out
Who Johnnie's hard on
Poor old Johnnie, is down on his luck now
His ruffled feathers, not much to pluck now
I know he treats 'em rough and they return it
He can create a bridge, and he can burn it
And I'll keep on asking his friends
Searching for all the loose ends
It's my goal, I intend to really find out
Who Johnnie's hard on
He flips the bird to all his ex-spouses
Got him into court, they got his houses
Took his children and his auto
Now he lives in drink and plays the lotto
And I'll keep on asking his friends
Searching for all the loose ends
It's my goal, and though I defend, I think I found out
Who Johnnie's hard on
I've heard he's cruel to someone near me
Don't know who it is, it's a myst'ry
I tried asking him but he don't hear me
And I'll keep on asking his friends
Searching for all the loose ends
It's my goal, I intend to really find out
Who Johnnie's hard on
Poor old Johnnie, is down on his luck now
His ruffled feathers, not much to pluck now
I know he treats 'em rough and they return it
He can create a bridge, and he can burn it
And I'll keep on asking his friends
Searching for all the loose ends
It's my goal, I intend to really find out
Who Johnnie's hard on
He flips the bird to all his ex-spouses
Got him into court, they got his houses
Took his children and his auto
Now he lives in drink and plays the lotto
And I'll keep on asking his friends
Searching for all the loose ends
It's my goal, and though I defend, I think I found out
Who Johnnie's hard on
eh.

DKTOS, but I'm glad it's not about me - looks like a good write, RD.
This is a "one joke" song. I wanted to see if everyone would jump to it because of the title, then find out it ain't dirty. Frank Zappa did that with a song that goes "I'll be harder than your husband.....to get along with, I'll be harder than your husband ...every night."
Hehe, Rick...good read, anyway...:D (DKTOS)
