Lyrics
Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies

Be-Bop-A-Lua, Baby What I Say

Here comes Johnny singing I Gotta Woman

Down in the tunnels, trying to make it pay

He got the action, he got the motion

Yeah, the boy can play

Dedication devotion

Turning all the night time into the day



He do the song about the sweet lovin' woman

He do the song about the knife

He do the walk, he do the walk of life



Here comes Johnny and he'll tell you the story

Hand me down mu walkin' shoes

Here come Johnny with the power and the glory

Backbeat the talkin' blues

He got the action, he got the motion

Yeah, the boy can play

Dedication devotion

Turning all the night time into the day



He do the song about the sweet lovin' woman

He do the song about the knife

He do the walk, he do the walk of life...

Love, love, LOVE. The song choice is so perfect and produces a mix of fond amusement and earnest affection for the character, ha. I love your choice of scenes, the whole second verse especially, and the "he got the action, he got the motion" moments are gold.

:-D Thank you so much! I had so much fun vidding this, especially the 'he got the action' line, I'm really glad you enjoyed it.
