Little Bad Johnny

[Chorus]
Tell me why oh why
Johnny make you bad so
Come what ???
Tell me why oh why
Johnny make you bad so
Come what ???

[Verse 1]
Here's a story 'bout a kid named Johnny
Funny and chummy no school just money
Tried to be slick never swallowed pride
Left his mom home alone while her eyes just cried
Tears for fears
Sorrow no cheers
Concerned about "Johnny's no good for me in my late years"
But what can I do, just forget?
The bad boy's my son, now how can I neglect
But I keep on praying until that day
When little bad Johnny will change his ways

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
The saga goes on
Now what's there to do?
Oh no, Little Johnny's
Hanging with a crew
Forget school
To him that's not cool
Snatching all the gold
And taking people's jewels
To him that's a life what you call success
But his mother always told him that's a way to a quick death
He didn't listen
He didn't take heed
He pursued his catastrophic and torrential greed
His mother just asked him
And damn near begged him
He was mentally sick
And the poison did affect him
To a point of no return
And his mother always asked
"Johnny when will you learn?
Nevertheless I can take you to pray"
And to little bad Johnny these words got said

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Now Johnny's cool
He knows where it's at
Smoking good blunts
And even based crack
Tell a story to the girls
That's out of this world
Ten rings on his fingers
With diamonds and pearl
Now who's to say
That John's not on
Good ropes around his neck
Stupid bracelets on his arm
Fresh shoes
Yeah, without a doubt
A pocket full of money
Four jammies in his mouth
But in the process
He forgot to take
A precautious measure
That cost him a mistake
Trying to be flam
Funky, and raw
The little bad Johnny forgot the street law
Be nice to the people
That you be around
'Cause what goes up has got to come down
Johnny started thinking soft thoughts in his head
His mother's voice picked up
And here's what she said

[Bridge]
Johnny your sense has been missing ya
I tried to tell you but you were ???
Sorry son, no I cannot help you
The time has come for you to solve it yourself

[Bridge 2]
Johnny walked away
He'd learned a lesson
Everything was ???hither
There was still one question

[Chorus]

Peace
