Johnny was working hard just like his father, Cutting lumber at the sawmill all day through. In the evening hanging out at the diner, Watching Betty working, and her eyes so blue. Betty was the girl he'd always wanted, But she was married to a man doing time. He was violent and mean, Bobby was his name. She knew when he got out, he'd do another crime. He got out on parole, and heard she was untrue, So he beat her up real bad, and drove away. She explained how she had fallen down the stairs again, But Johnny knew the truth, and swore he'd make him pay. He put the hammer down, and thundered down the road. He drove all night from town to town. But Bobby knew he'd come, so he waited, And at the break of dawn he shot poor Johnny down. He set fire to the body and headed home. Betty was closing up the diner when he came. She bolted the door but he brought gasoline, And through the flames she called out Johnny's name...
2nd year of stumbling upon this beautiful piece of work . I'm still captivated by the story, the lyrics, the vocals and the guitar melody is out of this world.
I love this piece that I discovered by chance, I even fell in love with it if you can say it. The melody on the guitar is great but I can't find it anywhere on the internet, if any of you have it, please send it to me. Cordially. Emmanuel
An exciting, powerful and touching performance. The combination of exciting words and preparation tells a true story and it works. I was moved to tears. Reminded me a little about Marillion's execution of a family business
Such an amazing voice and Song!! THis video deserves millions of views!! Can we download it somewhere?Have seen also the girl that sings it? amazing guys!
당신에 목소리 자체가 최고에 연주군요. 아주 오랜만에 진정한 음악을 듣게 해주어서 너무나 감사합니다. 아마 내 남은생 가장 사랑하는 음악이 될거 같아요 정말 멋진 연주와 그리고 가슴을 울리는 아름다운 당신에 음악 정말로 감사하다고 말하고 싶군요,,,,really thank u so much...
Hi! We recorded this video in our guitar workshop which is located at a steel mill. We figure that it would be nice to invite the workers at the steel mill to come as audience:)
These type of singer/songwriter deserves to be on top of the charts. That was a powerful performance.
Well said, storytelling in books level
Love songs like this

Check out this live performance of his (and the band's). So much more raw and emotional, imo.
Johnny was working hard just like his father,
Cutting lumber at the sawmill all day through.
In the evening hanging out at the diner,
Watching Betty working, and her eyes so blue.
Betty was the girl he'd always wanted,
But she was married to a man doing time.
He was violent and mean, Bobby was his name.
She knew when he got out, he'd do another crime.
He got out on parole, and heard she was untrue,
So he beat her up real bad, and drove away.
She explained how she had fallen down the stairs again,
But Johnny knew the truth, and swore he'd make him pay.
He put the hammer down, and thundered down the road.
He drove all night from town to town.
But Bobby knew he'd come, so he waited,
And at the break of dawn he shot poor Johnny down.
He set fire to the body and headed home.
Betty was closing up the diner when he came.
She bolted the door but he brought gasoline,
And through the flames she called out Johnny's name...
Thank you

The song is absolutely fantastic, but am I the only one wondering why he performs it in front of the city's cleaning crew?

@@strandguitars8177 I think that's really cool. I was a bit confused by the look of the audience, but this makes sense. Great bit!
Strand Guitars amazing! Love it
An awful song (message) sung beautifully
Good song... not
This is great song
