about

Johnny 7 had a good night...it was the kind of night that his 20-something female bandmates would never let his 30-something ass forget.

The night was immortalized in song, and the names were changed...or were they?

The end.

lyrics

OL' JOHNNY'S DRUNK AGAIN

Ol' Johnny's drunk again
Ol' Johnny's drunk again
Well the twinkle in his eye says he's easy as pie
Ol' Johnny's drunk again

He's got arm around Miss Janet
Maggie's on his lap
Well he's got his hand on Dina's knee
And he's making eyes at Molly

Ol' Johnny's drunk again
Ol' Johnny's drunk again
He's the one on the floor the girls adore
Ol' Johnny's drunk again

Drink 1
The ladies start to show
Drink 2
He's raring to go
Drink 3
I think he's eyeing me
4, 5 and 6
He's surrounded by chicks!

Ol' Johnny's drunk again
Ol' Johnny's drunk again
When the ladies are stacked he's got the knack
Ol' Johnny's drunk again

Go Johnny!

He'll ask you to dance
Mmm hmm he can lead
He'll swing you around, he knows what you need
His hands are always moving and they're big and strong
When Ol' Johnny's drunk -- he can do no wrong

He's got arm around Miss Janet
Dina's on his lap
Well he's got his hand on Maggie's knee
And he's making' eyes at Molly

Ol' Johnny's drunk again
Ol' Johnny's drunk again
He's a little demure, but self-assured
Ol' Johnny's drunk again

Drink 7
He howls at the moon
Drink 8
He'll be dancing soon
Drink 9
He'll be hard to find
10
He's a-kissin' on his new friend

Ol' Johnny's drunk again
Ol' Johnny's drunk again
Behind closed doors he's so much more
Ol' Johnny's drunk again

Ol' Johnny's drunk again
Ol' Johnny's drunk again
Well I'd stand in line to spend some time with Johnny
When he gets drunk again
