a man who died with his guitar in his hands

and all those young girls are crying,
cryin 'why, why, why johnny thunders?'
cryin 'why, why, why johnny thunders?'
but i say 'go, go, go johnny thunders'
i say 'go, go, go johnny thunders'

and their very next song, it was gonna be a hit
it was gonna be a hit
and their very next song it was gonna be a hit

and all those young girls that had johhnys picture up on their walls,
they clipped them out of the magazines, they were crying
'why, why, why johnny thunders?'
cryin 'why, why, why johnny thunders?'

but i say something different,
i say 'go, go, go johnny thunders'
i say 'go, go, go johnny thunders'
