- The Ballad Of Johnny Butt Lyrics / with translationsJohnny Butt was a man with a real strong
Will to survive
He'd just keep pushing on
Even though he was barely alive
So...
Shoot it up
Shoot it up
It just don't matter
Johnny says he wants to go do it
Says he wants to kill a cop
We've got a brand new dance, it's called
We've got to overcome
We've got a brand new dance, it's called
We've got to overcome
So Johnny
Just keep pushing
'Cause the streets are yours
There'll come a day
When all that shit wont matter
So...
Shoot it up
Shoot it up
It just don't matter
When you're resisted anyway
We've got a brand new dance, it's called
We've got to overcome
We've got a brand new dance, it's called
We've got to overcome
So Johnny
You kept on pushing
The streets are yours
And there'll come a day
When all that shit wont matter
So...
Shoot it up
Shoot it up
It just don't matter
Resisted anyway
We've got a brand new dance, it's called
We've got to overcome
We've got a brand new dance, it's called
We've got to overcome
Will to survive
He'd just keep pushing on
Even though he was barely alive
So...
Shoot it up
Shoot it up
It just don't matter
Johnny says he wants to go do it
Says he wants to kill a cop
We've got a brand new dance, it's called
We've got to overcome
We've got a brand new dance, it's called
We've got to overcome
So Johnny
Just keep pushing
'Cause the streets are yours
There'll come a day
When all that shit wont matter
So...
Shoot it up
Shoot it up
When you're resisted anyway
We've got a brand new dance, it's called
We've got to overcome
We've got a brand new dance, it's called
We've got to overcome
So Johnny
You kept on pushing
The streets are yours
And there'll come a day
When all that shit wont matter
So...
Shoot it up
Shoot it up
It just don't matter
Resisted anyway
We've got a brand new dance, it's called
We've got to overcome
We've got a brand new dance, it's called
We've got to overcome
