It's a sleepless night, She's callin' your name 
It's a lonely ride, I know how you want her 
Again and Again, you're chasin' a dream yeah 
But Johnny my friend, she's not what she seems 

Johnny B, how much there is to see 
Just open your eyes and listen to me 
Straight ahead, a green light turns to red 
Oh why can't you see, oh Johnny B 

And when you drive her home, is she sittin' real close 
Does she make you weak, well that's the way that she wants you 
You're strung out again, she's taken you over 
You've been here before, why can't you let go 

Johnny B, how much there is to see 
Just open your eyes and listen to me 
Straight ahead, a green light turns to red 
Oh why can't you see, oh Johnny B 

And when she calls your name, my sweet Johnny B 
You can drive all night and you know she'll be waiting 
To love you again, her kiss is her poison 
Forever inside you, wherever you go 

Johnny B, how much there is to see 
Just open your eyes and listen to me 
Straight ahead, a green light turns to red 
Oh why can't you see, oh Johnny B 
Oh why can't you see
