[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
Oh babe, you know you missed the fight
(He's a trouble maker, he's a trouble man)
Alligator wrecked the bar last night
(He's a trouble maker, he's a trouble man)
I guess he had fun, to some people fun is a drag
I guess he had fun, to some people fun is a drag

[Verse 2]
Gator's lady had to hitch a ride
(She's a trouble lady to a trouble man)
Got picked up by some guys in some band
(You'd never believe what they do to a fan)
They found a "C" on her back
And a lead guitar strap in her hand
They found a "C" on her back
And a lead guitar strap in her hand

[Pre-Chorus]
(Go, Johnny, do what you wanna do)
(Go, Johnny, do what you wanna do)

[Chorus]
(So go, Johnny) Ooh, don't you know I'm a man?
(Go, go, Johnny) 1-85 through the Southland
(Johnny) And my fingers is cold
But my manager's tan, so watch out!
(So go, Johnny) On the road in a dangerous van
(Go, go, Johnny) Watch 'em burn through the Southland
(Johnny) Ooh, with my axe in my hand
Watch out for Johnny Gore and the "C" Eaters Band!
[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 3]
Holy Jesus, look at Gator up there!
(He's got Johnny Gore on the stage by the hair)
Come on, you guys, give the Eaters a hand
I paid two dollars just to see this ba-ba-ba-band
I ain't gonna let no loser put the screw on the show
So give us a hand, Gator's crazy, you know

[Pre-Chorus]
(Go, Johnny, do what you wanna do)
(Go, Johnny, do what you wanna do)

[Chorus]
(So go, Johnny) Ooh, don't you know I'm a man?
(Go, go, Johnny) 1-85 through the Southland
(Johnny) And my fingers is cold
But my manager's tan, so watch out!
(So go, Johnny) On the road in a dangerous van
(Go, go, Johnny) Watch 'em burn through the Southland
(Johnny) Ooh, with my axe in my hand
So watch out for Johnny Gore and the "C" Eaters Band!

[Outro]
Go, go, Johnny, so go, Johnny
Go, go, Johnny, so go, Johnny
Go, go, Johnny, so go, Johnny
Go, go, Johnny, so go, Johnny
Go, go, Johnny, so go, Johnny
Go, go, Johnny, so go, Johnny
Go, go, Johnny, so go, Johnny
Go, go, Johnny, so go, Johnny...
