Johnnie Valentine

 Johnnie Valentine

 

Here he comes walking down the line

Much brighter than the sunshine

Like an angel singing simply divine

Who could it be but Johnnie Valentine?

 

As he walks on by all the girls sigh

Oh won’t you come and be my guy

As he walks on by all the girls sigh

Come on Johnnie give me a try

 

They call my friend Johnnie ninety-nine

One short of perfection so mighty fine

Every day I say he puts it on the line

Who could it be but Johnnie ninety-nine?

 

As he walks on by all the girls sigh

Oh won’t you come and be my guy

As he walks on by all the girls sigh

Come on Johnnie give me a try

 

Lea don’t you worry don’t trouble your mind

If Johnny left you he’d have to be blind

Because between the two you’re the better find

But rhyming your name would put me in a bind

 

See him in the church house kneeling in prayer

Every Sunday morning I meet Johnnie there

Hoping that someone will turn water into wine

Go give it a try Mister Johnnie Valentine

 

As he walks on by all the girls sigh

Oh won’t you come and be my guy

As he walks on by all the girls sigh

Come on Johnnie give me a try

 

He’s the real deal pure and genuine

That’s my friend Johnnie Valentine

Love and hate the two forces intertwine

We all decide says Johnnie ninety-nine

 

As he walks on by all the girls sigh

Oh won’t you come and be my guy

As he walks on by all the girls sigh

Come on Johnnie give me a try
