Lyrics
Johnnie came home with a guitar, man
Worked so hard, no money in hand
Kicked up a storm every night he played
Had the whole south-west eating off of his
plate
Run with the Devil and you lose your soul
Sign on the bottom and you lose your hold
Don?t take advice from the corporate man
Bleed you dry just as fast as he can
Just as fast as he can
Then one night as he rocked that joint
Along came a man and he made his point
Flashed them bills right before his eyes
Johnnie took the bait, now it?s his demise
Run with the Devil and you lose your soul
Sign on the bottom and you lose your hold
Don?t take advice from the corporate man
Bleed you dry just as fast as he can
Just as fast as he can
Johnnie worked hard and he took no rest
Poppin? those pills made his life a mess
They dropped his ass, now he?s all dried up
A habit for a friend and the Devil for luck
Run with the Devil and you lose your soul
Sign on the bottom and you lose your hold
Don?t take advice from the corporate man
Bleed you dry just as fast as he can
Just as fast as he can
Run with the Devil and you lose your soul
Sign on the bottom and you lose your hold
Don?t take advice from the corporate man
Bleed you dry just as fast as he can
Just as fast as he can
