Slickers - Johnny (Too) Bad

Walking down the road
With a pistol in your waist
Johnny you're too bad (whoo-oi)
Walking down the road
With a ratchet in your waist
Johnny you're too bad (whoo-oi)

You're just robbing and stabbing and looting and shooting
Now you're too bad (too bad)
You're just robbing and stabbing and looting and shooting
Now you're too bad (too bad)

One of these days when you hear a voice say: "come"
Where you gonna run to (whoo-oi)
One of these days when you hear a voice say: "come"
Where you gonna run to (whoo-oi)

You're gonna run to the rock for rescue
But there'll be no rock (no rock)
You're gonna run to the rock for rescue
But there'll be no rock (no way)

Now you're too bad (too bad)

You're gonna run to the rock for rescue
But there'll be no rock (no way)
