Well, lucky number seven passed me by 

Lucky number seven called my name and passed on by 

Well he came back don't you know 

with his brother six in tow 

And that is how number thirteen wound up by my side. 



And that is how I got these Lonesome Johnny Blues 

How I got these Lonesome Johnny Blues 

Got the Lonesome Johnny Blues 

and there's nothing I can do 

'Cept sing these sad old weary Lonesome Johnny Blues 



Here we go 



Grim Reaper he pulled up into my drive 

Grim Reaper pulled his little old Chevrolet right up onto the goddamn drive


"Johnny, I haven't come for you 

but I want someone who's dear to you 

and the price you pay is to remain alive" 



And I'll stay here with these Lonesome Johnny Blues 

Stay here with these Lonesome Johnny Blues 

With the Lonesome Johnny Blues  

and there's nothing I can do  

'Cept sing these sad old weary Lonesome Johnny Blues 



Woah, no more trouble send him down the road, won't you please. 

No more trouble won't you beat him up, won't you send him down the road 

Trouble dumped out the trash 

Ransacked the place for cash 

and he wound up taking much more than I own 



And he left me with these Lonesome Johnny Blues 

Left me with these Lonesome Johnny Blues 

With the Lonesome Johnny Blues 

and there's nothing I can do  

'Cept sing these sad old weary Lonesome Johnny Blues 



Johnny Blues 

the sad old weary Lonesome Johnny Blues 

Johnny Blues 

the sad old weary Lonesome Johnny Blues
