Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies  Be-Bop-A-Lula, Baby What I Say 

Here comes Johnny singing I Gotta Woman   

Down in the tunnels, trying to make it pay 
A                                        
He got the action, He got the motion    Yeah the boy can play 
A                      E 
Dedication, devotion   Turning all the night time into the day 
E                                     B 
He do the song about the sweet lovin' woman 
          E                     A 
He do the song about the knife 
          E7   B                  A         B                   E    A  B  A B 
He do the walk, he do the walk of life. Yeah, he do the walk of life 
E 
Here comes Johnny and he'll tell you the story 

Hand me down my walkin' shoe 

Here come Johnny with the power and the glory 

Backbeat the talkin' blues 
A 
He got the action, He got the motion 
E 
Yeah the boy can play 
A 
Dedication, devotion 
E 
Turning all the night time into the day 
E                                     B 
He do the song about the sweet lovin' woman 
         E                     A 
He do the song about the knife 
          E7  B                   A      B                       E  A B A B 
He do the walk, he do the walk of life.  Yeah, he do the walk of life 
E 
Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies  Be-Bop-A-Lula, Baby What I Say 

Here comes Johnny singing I Gotta Woman   

Down in the tunnels, trying to make it pay 
A 
He got the action, He got the motion 
E 
Yeah the boy can play 
A 
Dedication, devotion 
E 
Turning all the night time into the day 
E                              B 
And after all the violence and double talk 
               E                               A 
There's just a song in all the trouble and the strife 
           E7  B                    A        B                     E  A B A B 
You do the walk, you do the walk of life. Yeah, you do the walk of life
