the whiskey priest - the batfish boys lyrics
[verse 1]
johnny was a whiskey priest
drunk as thunder in the desert
lost his bottle in the sand
future trickled through his hands
sat in a bar
back to the door
dealt straight aces
aces and eights
[pre*chorus]
hey johnny
hey hey johnny
[chorus]
johnny be gentle
johnny be good
johnny you do right
you know that you should
johnny be gentle
johnny be cool
johnny don’t you that fool, no
the whiskey priest
[verse 2]
johnny got his salvation
the bible according to johnny
traded in all his good times for whiskey
and a couple of dimes
[pre*chorus]
yeah johnny
yeah, stay cool
[chorus]
johnny be gentle
johnny be good
johnny you do right
you know that you should
johnny bе gentle
johnny be cool
johnny don’t you that fool, no
[verse 3]
johnny laid himsеlf to rest
burnt out and blessed
spirit bared for all to see
at last the preacher drank himself free
[pre*chorus]
yeah johnny
hey hey hey johnny
[chorus]
johnny be gentle
johnny be good
johnny you do right
you know that you should
johnny be gentle
johnny be cool
johnny don’t you that fool, no
[guitar solo]
[bridge]
hey johnny
[outro]
well as the vultures circled overhead
saw his cross made of lead
and johnny’s soul rose before their eyes
johnny found heaven in a whiskey paradise
