Why Johnny Lyrics by Megan Moroney

Lucky (Deluxe)

2023

[Verse 1]
Hey, if I could I'd sit you down buy you a drink and ask you how
You got a cowboy ridin' to slow on down and walk the line and
I'd wanna hear it from the start, how many times did he break your heart?
From what I'm readin', why didn't you leave him?
[Chorus]
When he came home late on booze and pills
Lyin' through that perfume smell comin' off his shirt?
What made you wanna make it work?
Did you always know he'd come around, change his ways and settle down?
Did your friends call you crazy too?
It'd sure help if I knew, hey June, why Johnny?
[Verse 2]
Did you know deep down inside your bones he'd be yours and yours alone?
Or were you just hoping? And how did you keep hoping?
I think I've got a Johnny of my own, but will he change? Hell if I know
Yes, I'm just hopin', but how do I keep hopin'
[Chorus]
When he comes home late on booze and pills
Lyin' through that perfume smell comin' off his shirt?
What made you wanna make it work?
Did you always know he'd come around, change his ways and settle down?
Did your friends call you crazy too?
It'd sure help if I knew, hey June, why Johnny?
[Bridge]
Why Johnny? And how June
Did you make him realize it was always you?
Did you ever wanna find somebody new?
[Chorus]
When he came home late on booze and pills
Lyin' through that perfume smell comin' off his shirt
What made you wanna make it work?
Did you always know he'd come around, change his ways and settle down?
Did your friends call you crazy too? Bet you could've had anyone you wanted to
So, hey, June, why Johnny?
[Outro]
Why Johnny? How, June?
