Il testo della Johnny o

Way down in the delta
Where the days move slow
There's a squeeze box player
Name a little johnny o
He's got a four piece band
And they're playin' real tight
Make the people go crazy
Every saturday night

Singing, hey johnny o
Let's fied-i-ay
On the ol' bayou
Hey johnny o
Well play the tennessee waltz
And the zydeco

They like their chuck berry records
And some fats domino
But the thing they like the most
Is hearin' little johnny o
Playin' fiedle-i-oh
Little johnny o
Playin' fiedle-i-oh
That's right johnny

Well the natches girls
They like to stroll around town
When johnny starts a playin'
You see'em come unwound
Well the boys in the corner
All loosin' their minds
Gonna make their move
When johnny gives the sigh

Singing, hey johnny o
Let's fied-i-ay
On the ol' bayou
Hey johnny o
Play the tennessee waltz
And the zydeco

They like their old country records
They're the mill for the soul
But the thing they like the most
Is hearin' little johnny o
Playin' fiedle-i-oh
Little johnny o
Playin' fiedle-i-oh
Play it, hey johnny
That's the ticket
(let's get down girl)

Way down in the delta
Where the big blue flows
There's a one little secret
That everybody knows
If you just can't sleep
And you're feelin' down
There's an all-night cure
Outside of town

And it's hey johnny o
Let's fied-i-ay
On the ol' bayou
Hey johhny o
Play the tennessee waltz
And the zydeco

They like all those songs
On the radio
But the thing they like the most
Is hearin' little johnny o
Playin' fiedle-i-oh
Little johnny o
Playin' fiedle-i-oh
Little johnny o
Playin' fiedle-i-oh
Little johnny o
Playin' fiedle-i-oh hey
Hey johnny
What is fiedle-i-oh?
