Song Lyrics:

Deep down in Californ-ey close to Hollywood
In sleepy downtown Burbank where the air's no good
They taped a little talk show for NBC
And it was hosted by a boy name of Johnny C
He couldn't keep a wife he wasn't lucky in love
But he could play 'em on a rug just like a swinging a club

Don't go
Don't go Johnny no don't go
Don't go Johnny no don't go
Don't go Johnny no don't go
Oh no Johnny please don't go
Boy, Johnny was good

He used to carry Mystery Cards in with Ed McMahon
And Severinsen was leadin' the Tonight Show band
Oh, every single night he'd lift your spirits up
And there was somethin' more than coffee in that coffee cup
For thirty long years lovers turned out their lights
To 'Here's Johnny' tonight

Don't go don't go Johnny no
No don't go don't go Johnny go
Don't go don't go Johnny go
Oh no don't go Johnny go
Oh no don't go
Boy Johnny was good

We never thought that someday he'd be off the air
We thought that he'd be jokin' from a rockin' chair
We thought he'd do a hundred anniversary shows
And he'd be tuggin' on his ears and a scratchin' his nose
Now couples will be wonderin' when they snuggle up tight
They'll say where's Johnny tonight?

Don't go don't go Johnny no
Don't go don't go Johnny no
Don't go don't go Johnny no
Oh please don't go Johnny no
Don't go
Boy, Johnny was good

(Dave AuJus)
