Little Johnny Hooker

Oh, I'm gonna tell you a story 'bout a little boy
Oh, a sad little boy
I'm talkin' 'bout Little Johnny Hooker

Little Johnny Hooker was a sissy on the street all his life --
All his natural born life
Until his daddy took him aside and said
"Son, now here's your switchblade knife boy."

He said "get out in the street boy
Cut yourself some meat boy
Get out on your own side of the road
And lighten my load."

Johnny made a mistake and took his knife down to school one day
Hey, yeah, yeah
And, when the bell rang for lunch
Freddie Miller went and got in Johnny's way boy
He took his knife from his pocket, pushed a button on the side
When he seen the queen steel
You ought to seen the light in Freddy's eyes

Oh, Yeah ...

Little Johnny Hooker learned his lesson from the knife now you see
(Yes he did.)
Because for what he done to Fred he spent some time in a penitentiary
It was a day in the courtroom, Exhibit letter "A."
When the jury seen the knife they put little Johnny's ass away

Little Johnny Hooker, he ain't a bad looker, he ain't a bad man, he ain't
Little Johnny Hooker, he ain't a bad looker, he ain't a bad man, he ain't
Little Johnny Hooker, he ain't a bad looker, he ain't a bad man, he ain't

Oh, Little Johnny boy
Little Johnny Hooker, he ain't a bad looker, he ain't a bad man, he ain't

He's thinkin' the rest of his life
For what he done with the knife
