With your pistol in your waist,
Johnny you're too bad. (whoo-oi)
Walking down the road,
With your ratchet in your waist,
Johnny you're too bad. (whoo-oi)
You're just robbing and stabbing, looting and shooting,
Now you're too bad. (too bad)
You're just robbing and stabbing, looting and shooting,
Now you're too bad. (too bad)
One of these days when you hear a voice say: "come"
Where you gonna run to? (whoo-oi)
One of these days when you hear a voice say: "come"
Where you gonna run to? (whoo-oi)
You're gonna run to the rock for rescue,
But there'll be no rock.
You're gonna run to the rock for rescue,
But there'll be no rock.
