lyrics

Oh, Johnny is up to his tricks again—
worst thing you can do is let him in.
And he’s sellin' that snake oil medicine,
But nobody’s buyin’ to his chagrin.

But he’ll be gone
before he wins the fight.
It almost happened last night.
But he’ll find himself
somewhere else tonight, yes he will.
And he’ll start over in the morning light.

Saw him once long after we were grown.
He said "you can take my girl" after drinkin' alone.
And she smiled at me sadly 'cause she knew he was gone,
and I took my leave of them and soldiered on.

But he’ll be gone
before he wins the fight.
It’s almost happened
oh so many nights,
But he thinks he’s fine
‘cause after all there’s always morning light.
He was gone before he won the fight.
