I had a dream I was down at Jojo's Havin' a burger 'neath the setting sun Johnny was sitting in the corner Sippin' on a glass of Depaz Rhum
He was checking out all of the tombstones 'Cross the cemetery in Lorient The stage was hung, the soundcheck done He was ready for everyone
He strummed a guitar made of orchids And the who's who all were there Bill Haley, Carl Perkins, not to mention Buddy Holly Plus, a couple of Jordanaires
Colonel Parker was lurking on a nearby beach With a contract full of deceit But Johnny took the stage And tore up every page And the crowd flew out of their seats
Johnny Hallyday Leap, and the net will appear There's no other way You ever could have wound up here All the blood and the sweat and the long shot bets And the things that the people say You were more than just the French Elvis You was Johnny Hallyday
There was a sound come across the ocean From Memphis to the heart of France It made Johnny dream and made the young girls scream And everybody sing and dance
And the sound spread through all nations But the source only played in one So Johnny made a plan, and he started a band And then made himself a hell of a run
Johnny Hallyday Leap, and the net will appear There's no other way You ever could have wound up here All the blood and the sweat and the long shot bets And the things that the people say You were more than just the French Elvis You was Johnny Hallyday
The Champs-Élysées was crowded Almost a million strong There to raise a glass and to watch him pass Maybe hoping for just one more song
Johnny Hallyday Leap, and the net will appear There's no other way We all could have wound up here All the blood and the sweat and the long shot bets And the things that the people say You were more than just the French Elvis You was Johnny, yeah, you was Johnny Johnny HallydayTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
