Story behind the song
It's the way I felt after a brake up with an ex.
Lyrics
Jonny dropped out of high school at the age of 15,
Got a job workin' in a factory,
Workin' for ten bucks an hour, every night he'd come home and take a shower,
Watch tv for an hour, then he'd fall asleep
Jonny said he had nothing left in store,
'Cept workin' everyday and being poor,
He asked me was there anything more, is there anything more for Jonny my friend?
Jonny met Janie when he was seventeen,
Got her pregnant sometime in the next two weeks,
Jonny lost his job the next day,
But Janies baby kept on coming anyway,
Jonny's too much of a man to run away
Jonny said he had nothing left in store,
'Cept workin' everyday and being poor,
He asked me was there anything more, is there anything more for Jonny my friend?
Janie told Jonny that he's living in sin,
'Cuz he can't provide for a wife and kin,
Those words went straight to Jonny's brain and he bought himself an eight shot Browning twelve gauge,
That's where the story of Jonny begins
Jonny went down to the liquor store,
Pointed his gun straight lookin' to score,
He grabbed the money and he ran right out of the door, is there anything more for Jonny my friend?
Jonny went to Janie with his blood money,
Told her that he loved her and wanted to get married,
Janie told Jonny that he's not the only one, and this isn't the life she wanted for her son,
Jonny just fell down to his knees and cried
Jonny's whole life past before his eyes,
He thought of Janie, he thought of his son, and suicide,
He grabbed the twelve gauge and pointed it right between his eyes, now everyone cries for Jonny my friend
