Eric Church Johnny Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Watching my boys play
How different my life was, I was their age
Now machines control people
People shoot at kids
I shutter to think about what the next thing is

[Chorus]
Johnny, ole Johnny, where did you go
The devil's broke out of georgia
And he's feasting on our soul
There's fire on the mountain
The flames are closing in
So run get your fiddle and bow
And send him to hell again
Get back to hell again
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I know redemption comes
It's taking way too long
Can't you see it in our faces
Can't you hear it in our songs
Yeah, we're holding on to hope
But we're hanging by a thread
Won't you put on your rattlesnake boots
And crush that serpients head [Chorus]
Yeah Johnny, ole Johnny, where did you go
The devil's broke out of georgia
And he's feasting on our soul
There's fire on the mountain
The flames are closing in
So run get your fiddle and bow
And send him to hell again
Yeah, back to hell again

[Bridge]
There's chicken in the bread pan picking out bits
Granny's does your dog bite these days, yes

[Chorus]
Johnny, there's fire on the mountain
The flames are closing in
So run get your fiddle and bow
And send him to hell again
Yeah, back to hell again
Back to hell again
[Outro]
There's fire on the mountain
There's fire on the mountain, run boys run
The devil's in the house of the rising sun
