Lyrics of Strung Out Johnny by Iggy Pop
verse
Hey man, I see you
Open up, okay
Get out of here, Iggy
Come on now, fix me up
verse
Love becomes compulsive
It's wiser to say no
God made me a junkie
But Satan told me so
chorus
You're strung out, Johnny
And you can't get away
You're strung out, Johnny
And now it's time to pay
hook
First time you do it with a friend
Second time you do it in a bed
Third time you can't get enough
And a life gets all fucked up
All fucked up
hook
You're strung out, Johnny (strung out, Johnny boy)
You're strung out, Johnny (strung out, Johnny boy)
verse
Promise said to Donnie
Sell that boy his spoon
Dump him like a hero
Or be forgotten soon
chorus
I'm strung out mommy
And I can't get away
I'm strung out mommy
And now it's timе to pay
hook
First time you do it with a friend
Second timе you do it in a bed
Third time you can't get enough
And a life gets all fucked up
All fucked up
You're strung out Johnny
chorus
You're strung out, Johnny (strung out, Johnny boy)
And you can't get away
You're strung out, Johnny (strung out, Johnny boy)
And now it's time to pay
chorus
You're strung out, Johnny (strung out, Johnny boy)
Nobody loves you so
You're strung out, Johnny (strung out, Johnny boy)
And that's the way it goes
outro
I'm strung out mommy (strung out, Johnny boy)
I'm strung out, mommy (strung out, Johnny boy)
You're strung out, Johnny
