Standard (EADGBE)
Johnny come late on a saturday night
Singin' how to go
Backstreet boogie in the house of delight
Where they steal the show
Money come sour but the ladies are sweet
It's a love affair
Whole place rockin', people stompin' their feet
When the gang's all there
He gets his lovin' every night for free
He's out there rockin' like you wouldn't believe
Singin' na, na, la, la, la
Johnny like to gamble with his lady louise
She was a black jack en dances are wild
He got to thinking 'bout his nose and a freeze
And johnny looked and he smiled
He started thinking 'bout a fortune and fame
And the young girls down at his knees
He dug the money but forgot all their names
So he knew just how to appease
(Got ) Lick and promise
Lick and a promise
Lick and a promise
(he gave the ladies a) lick and a promise
Loose change grubber in his early, early years
Had his poor mama pacin' the floors
He grabbed a guitar and a couple of beers
Now the crowd keeps screamin' for more
(Got ) Lick and promise
Lick and a promise
Lick and a promise
(he gave the ladies a) lick and a promise
