1. I gotta
get some money and get it right away,

because my baby,
she gave me the word today.

She’s tired of sitting home
each night, she says she had her fill,

and
if I don’t take her to the dance next week - Johnny will.

2. I checked and found
they’re selling tickets at five bucks each,

and all that kind of money ain’t within my reach.

But if I wanna be the guy who is her only thrill,

I better take her to the dance
next week - or Johnny will.

Oh, that Johnny, that no good
Johnny,

to steal my loving baby away.

Sends her candy,
sends her flowers,

never saw her smile the way she
smiled at him today.
