[Intro: Group]
Johnny, don't do it
Johnny, don't do it
Johnny, don't do it
Johnny, don't do it
[Verse 1: Lol Creme]
Johnny was an angel
An angel dressed in black
He used to hang around the guys
Down at the local track
He tried so hard to join them
But they always turned him back
[Chorus: Group & (Lol Creme)]
Johnny, don't do it (He was an angel)
Johnny, don't do it (Such an angel)
[Verse 2: Lol Creme]
He was only seventeen
Just got out of school
He stole a bike from Joe's garage
To prove that he was cool
He didn't know that the brakes were worn
Oh, fate can be so cruel
[Chorus: Group & (Lol Creme)]
Johnny, don't do it (He was an angel)
Johnny, don't do it (Such an angel)
Johnny, don't do it (Johnny, don't do it)
Johnny, don't do it (Johnny, don't do it)
[Bridge 1: Kevin Godley]
Well, Johnny went a-riding
With his girlfriend on the back seat
Looking for some action
And they found it down a backstreet
Suddenly, a truck pulled out
He tried to step on the brake
[Interlude: Lol Creme & (Kevin Godley)]
Johnny, don't do it (Here is a news flash)
Johnny, don't do it (Today, Johnny Kowalski)
(Otherwise known as Johnny Angel)
Johnny, don't do it (And his young fiancé, Francine)
(Were tragically killed in a motorcycle accident)
Johnny, don't do it, don't do it
Don't do it, don't do it (Any witnesses, please contact)
Don't do it, don't do it, don't do it (The police at Precinct 29)
[Bridge 2: Group]
Oh, yeah, uh-huh
Whoa, oh
[Verse 3: Lol Creme & Kevin Godley]
Now Johnny's with the angels
The angels in the sky
I wonder if he thinks of us
As he goes riding by?
If only he had listened
Oh, the number of times we tried
To tell him
[Chorus: Group & (Lol Creme)]
Johnny, don't do it (He was an angel)
Johnny, don't do it (Such an angel)
Johnny, don't do it (He was an angel)
Johnny, don't do it (Such an angel)
[Outro: Group]
Johnny, don't do it
Johnny, don't do it
Johnny, don't do it
Johnny, don't do it
Johnny, don't do it
Johnny, don't do it
Johnny, don't do it
Johnny, don't do it...
