Now you know some fellahs, they want fame and fortune
Yeah, and other fellahs they just wanna swing
But all I wanted all my life
Was a TV set and a truck and a wife
And a front row seat to hear ole Johnny sing
Yeah the TV and the truck I got on credit
And I got that girl with a little old Woolworth ring
And life was warm and life was sweet
But still, it was kinda incomplete
Without a front row seat to hear ole Johnny sing
Chorus:
Hey, John you walk the line
Do "Deelia" one more time
And when you do them Cottonfields
You warm this heart of mine
So, one day I thought, Hey, I'm gonna do it!
(That's what I said)
So, I mortgaged the farm and pawned her wedding ring
I sold the gold tooth out of my mouth
And jumped in the pickup and headed South
For a front row seat to hear ole Johnny sing
I hit Nashville cold and wet and hungry
I said, "I'm here, bring him on let him do his thing."
But they told me down at the Old Pit Grill
I'd have to go all the way to Andersonville
For a front row seat to hear ole Jonny sing
Yeah, and other fellahs they just wanna swing
But all I wanted all my life
Was a TV set and a truck and a wife
And a front row seat to hear ole Johnny sing
Yeah the TV and the truck I got on credit
And I got that girl with a little old Woolworth ring
And life was warm and life was sweet
But still, it was kinda incomplete
Without a front row seat to hear ole Johnny sing
Chorus:
Hey, John you walk the line
Do "Deelia" one more time
And when you do them Cottonfields
You warm this heart of mine
So, one day I thought, Hey, I'm gonna do it!
(That's what I said)
So, I mortgaged the farm and pawned her wedding ring
I sold the gold tooth out of my mouth
And jumped in the pickup and headed South
For a front row seat to hear ole Johnny sing
I hit Nashville cold and wet and hungry
I said, "I'm here, bring him on let him do his thing."
But they told me down at the Old Pit Grill
I'd have to go all the way to Andersonville
For a front row seat to hear ole Jonny sing
