Johnny Magic

Neil Young


Johnny magic had a way with metal
Had a way with machines
One day in a garage far away
He met destiny

In the form of a heavy metal continental
She was born to run on a proud highway
Then the whole world started running out of money
People losing their jobs
Right here in wichita
Wichita

The home of the heavy metal continental
Where the motor-head messiah was tuning the system in

Johnny magic, johnny magic
Johnny magic, johnny magic

She burst from the garage in a blaze of silence
Disappearing down douglas at lightning speed
Before the big metal door came crashing down

In wichita
The home of the heavy metal continental
Where the motor-head messiah was tuning the system in

Johnny magic, johnny magic
Johnny magic, johnny magic
Wichita

The home of the heavy metal continental
She was born to run on a proud highway
Now she goes long range on domestic green fuel
100 Miles per gallon is the continental rule
Out on the kansas two-lane flats near wichita

Wichita

The home of the heavy metal continental
She was born to run on a proud highway

Johnny magic, johnny magic
Johnny magic, johnny magic
The motor-head messiah went to washington
To show them what he'd done
The senators and congressmen came down
In washington
And they rode in the heavy metal continental

She was born to run on a proud highway
Johnny magic, johnny magic
Johnny magic, johnny magic
Wichita
The motor-head messiah was tuning the system in
