Artist/Band: Hollies
Lyrics for Song: Look Out Johnny (There's A Monkey On Your Back)
Lyrics for Album: Another Night [1991]



Johnny was a pusher on the east side

pushing anything to be pushed

Laid something on a guy who didn't get high

Didn't know the guy was a hood



Wheeling-dealing Johnny got frightened

thought the best place was out of town

Packed up his bags and threw them in the back

Packed up his bags and threw them in the back

of his Chevy put his foot flat down



Look out Johnny there's a monkey on your back

You better beware there Johnny

'cause the monkey's packin' a gat

Drivin' over red lights speeding down the freeway

Johnny Johnny get away



You better beware there Johnny

There's a monkey on your back



Johnny thought he'd do something clever

Turning south on the old Coast Road

Pushing 94 swerving leaning on the door

trying to shake off his heavy load



Crossed the state line feeling safer

Drinking in the corner of a bar

In walked a guy looked the barman in the eye

said "Hey is Johnny in here"



chorus



You better beware there Johnny

There's a monkey on your back

Be good



You better beware there Johnny

there's a monkey on your back

Look out Johnny 'cos the monkey's packin' a gat

Drivin' over red lights speeding down the freeway

Johnny Johnny get away



You better beware there Johnny

There's a monkey on your back

Look out Johnny there's a monkey on your back



(repeat)
