Johnny Don't Do It - 10cc

Johnny don’t do it

Johnny don’t do it

Johnny don’t do it

Johnny don’t do it

Johnny was an angel

An angel dressed in black

He used to hang around the guys

Down at the local track

He tried so hard to join them

But they always turned him back

Johnny don’t do it

He was an angel

Johnny don’t do it

Such an angel

He was only 17

Just got out of school

He stole a bike from Joe’s garage

To prove that he was cool

He didn’t know that the brakes were worn

And fate can be so cruel

Johnny don’t do it

He was an angel

Johnny don’t do it

Such an angel

Johnny don’t do it

Johnny don’t do it

Johnny don’t do it

Johnny don’t do it

Well Johnny went a riding

With his girlfriend on the back seat

Looking for some action

And they found it down a back street

Suddenly a truck pulled out

He tried to step on the brake

Johnny don’t do it (Here is a news flash)

Johnny don’t do it (Today, Johnny Kowalski, also known as Johnny Angel)

Johnny don’t do it (and his young fiance Francine, were tragically killed)

Johnny don’t do it (in a cycle accident)

Don’t do it, don’t do it (any witnesses please contact)

Don’t do it, don’t do it (the police at Precinct 29)

Now Johnny’s with the angels

The angels in the sky

I wonder if he thinks of us

As he goes riding by

If only had listened

oh the number of times we tried

To tell him

Johnny don’t do it

He was an angel

Johnny don’t do it

Such an angel

Johnny don’t do it

He was an angel

Johnny don’t do it

Such an angel

Johnny don’t do it

Johnny don’t do it

Johnny don’t do it

Johnny don’t do it
