SUBLIME LYRICS - The Ballad Of Johnny Butt

"The Ballad Of Johnny Butt"



Johnny Butt was a man with a real strong

Will to survive

He'd just keep pushing on

Even though he was barely alive



So...

Shoot it up

Shoot it up

It just don't matter



Johnny says he wants to go do it

Says he wants to kill a cop



We've got a brand new dance, it's called

We've got to overcome

We've got a brand new dance, it's called

We've got to overcome



So Johnny

Just keep pushing

'Cause the streets are yours

There'll come a day

When all that shit wont matter



So...

Shoot it up

Shoot it up

It just don't matter

When you're resisted anyway



We've got a brand new dance, it's called

We've got to overcome

We've got a brand new dance, it's called

We've got to overcome



So Johnny

You kept on pushing

The streets are yours

And there'll come a day

When all that shit wont matter



So...

Shoot it up

Shoot it up

It just don't matter

Resisted anyway



We've got a brand new dance, it's called

We've got to overcome

We've got a brand new dance, it's called

We've got to overcome
