UB40 - Johnny Too Bad lyrics

Your rating:

Walking down the road with a pistol in your waist
Johnny you're too bad
Walking down the road with a ratchet in your waist
Johnny you're too bad

You're just robbing and stabbing
Looting and shooting
You're too bad 
You're just robbing and stabbing
Looting and shooting
You're too bad 

One of these day's when you hear a voice say come
Where you gonna run to?
One of these day's when you hear a voice say come
Where you gonna run to?

You're just robbing and stabbing
Looting and shooting
You're too bad 
You're just robbing and stabbing
Looting and shooting
You're too bad 

You're gonna run to the rock
For rescue, there'll be no rock
You're gonna run to the rock
For rescue, there'll be no rock

Walking down the road with a pistol in your waist
Johnny you're too bad
Walking down the road with a ratchet in your waist
Johnny you're too bad

You're just robbing and stabbing
Looting and shooting
You're too bad 
You're just robbing and stabbing
Looting and shooting
You're too bad 

One of these day's when you hear a voice say come
Where you gonna run to?
One of these day's when you hear a voice say come
Where you gonna run to?

You're gonna run to the rock
For rescue, there'll be no rock
You're gonna run to the rock
For rescue, there'll be no rock
You're gonna run to the rock

You say that you're bad, you .... like you're mad
You terrorize the people and you make them sad
Why, why?
You are the Babylon
You think that you're tough, you .... like you rough
Intimidate a man jus to call him bluff
Why why? 
You are the Babylon

You're just robbing and stabbing
Looting and shooting
You're too bad 
You're just robbing and stabbing
Looting and shooting
You're too bad 

You stop and you search and you broke in on the house
You turn it upside down like a ....
You set up a man any way you can
You double cross the man according to plan
Why, why? 
You are the Babylon
Why, why? 
You are the Babylon 

You give a man weed, put him on the street
Get a three year stretch, courtesy of the queen
Why, why?
Why you so wicked?
You come and dance, you will take chance
You better watch your step or you will get lanced
Why, why? 
Because you so wicked 

You're just robbing and stabbing
Looting and shooting
You're too bad 
You're just robbing and stabbing
Looting and shooting
You're too bad 

In the daytime you smile in the nighttime you snarl
You get equipment .... get in a brawl
You let loose your dogs to set upon the wogs
You come in disguise but everyone get wise
Why, why?
You are the Babylon
You're gonna run you're gonna run but you can not hide no, no. 
Oh no, but you cannot hide
