Johnny B ’77

Lyrics

He stands on the platform Waiting to travel on He's ten years old He watches the trains until they're gone He's got an idea That's gonna go round the world He's only ten But his mind flies like a bird Waiting so long to travel on Don't let anything slow you down You've got the time till the leaves turn brown Don't let anything slow you down, down They sit on the roadside Waiting to hitch a ride Twenty years old They're blown along in the summer slide He's got a feeling He's gonna leavе her behind He's nеarly grown, but Loning's gonna blow his mind Waiting so long To travel on Don't let anything slow you down You've got the time till the leaves turn brown Don't let anything slow you down, down . . He waits at the airport Waiting to catch his flight Thirty years old He follows the planes into the night He's got a guitar That pushes and pushes him where he goes Into the futures Where the people wait in rows Waiting so long to travel on Don't let anything slow you down You've got the time till the leaves turn brown Don't let anything slow you down, down
