Jack Erdie – Big Brother Johnny lyrics

We’re the new kids,
We always the new kids
We’re the freshest game in your town
When the neigh’bood bullies
All come out for the newlies
Think they can push us around.
But we’re not scared,
We ain’t gonna scatter,
And we stroll wherever we please
‘Coz if you so much as touch us,
Gonna wish you was home in your bed
With a fatal disease.

Big brother Johnny
Gonna put everybody in they place
Big brother Johnny
Gonna greet everybody fist to face
Well, he ain’t here, yet,
But he’s comin’, you bet
He’s home now combin’ his hair
Big Brother Johnny
Gonna catch everybody unawares.

Seen him jump from a two-story window
And he land right smack on his feet
When the bruise-jocks came
Lookin’ fo’ some punchin’ bags
Tried to rough us up in the street
His scream alone
Sent the muscleheads a-runnin’.
Chased ‘em on into the park
And took turns slappin’ round
One and then the other.
Sent ‘em both home cryin’ at dark

Big Brother Johnny
Gonna come on the run and put you down
Ya won’t think it’s funny
When you’re lyin’ all bloody on the ground
He go right in your house.
He don’ axe no permission.
So they ain’t no place you can hide.
Big Brother Johnny
Never stop till you know he’s satisfied.

He’s my big brother
And he sho’ puts me through it
But he can’t stand to see
Anybody else do it…

First time out
From a brand new location
And the punks came by on they bikes
They was bustin’ rocks
Right upside our noggins
Johnny came from nowhere in sight
Rammed one into the wall,
Then he took his head
And bounced all over the place
Chased the other boy
Right up on his porch
And interduced his bike to his face

Big Brother Johnny
Gonna whoop everybody in his reach
Make everybody
Give us all an apology speech
Well, he may be dumb
And he might be demented
But we think he does it for love
Big Brother Johnny
Like to turn every push into a shove.
