Johnny Soul’d Out

Brian O’Neal

[Verse 1]
Johnny was known as the King of Soul
He was a brother, had it under control
You never saw him trippin' while trying to find the beat
Just watching him walk would make you tap your feet
Lord only knows, Johnny had it under control

[Verse 2]
James Brown was his cousin
Little Richard was his friend
Lord only knows, where the story begins
His mother says, she doesn't know where she went wrong
He was raised in the Church, singing all week long
Oh Johnny, can you tell me, what made you lose control?

[Pre-Chorus]
I saw him do the jerk
I saw him do the twist
The next thing I know
He was acting like this

[Chorus]
Johnny soul'd out (ooh), I tell you Johnny soul'd out (ooh)
He's into rock and roll, and he's given up the rhythm and blues

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't know why he did it
I don't know why he quit
The next thing I know
He was acting like this

[Chorus]
Johnny soul'd out (ooh), I tell you Johnny soul'd out (ooh)
He's into rock and roll, and he's given up the rhythm and blues

(Show 'em what I'm takin' bout, Johnny! Oo-wee!)

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't know why he did it
I don't know why he quit
The next thing I know
He was acting like this

[Chorus]
Johnny soul'd out (ooh), I tell you Johnny soul'd out (ooh)
He's into rock and roll, and he's given up the rhythm and blues

[Pre-Chorus]
I saw him do the jerk
And I saw him do the twist
The next thing I know
He was acting like this

[Chorus]
Johnny soul'd out (ooh), I tell you Johnny soul'd out (ooh)
He's into rock and roll, and he's given up the rhythm and blues
(Spank 'em!)
He's into rock and roll, and he's given up the rhythm and blues
