Don’t Cry Joni, part II
(The Sequel)
Johnny, oh, how I can’t believe
The tricks you had right up your sleeve
Never ever dreamt that my best friend
Would steal my Joni in the end
Without my Joni, I lost my way
I drank all night, and I slept all day
My life was not worth living, now
I barely hung on, surviving, somehow
Not all was well in our little hometown
Joni was sad, ‘cause Johnny ran around
But she had no clue what lay ahead
When she found Johnny in their bed
Johnny, Johnny, please don’t lie
Caught you sleeping with another guy
Take your boyfriend and go away
And this is what Johnny had to say
Joni, Joni, please don’t cry
You’ll forget me by and by
I’m so sorry I lied to you
Go, find Jimmy, he’s forever true
After years of drifting around
I had to be strong; had to buckle down
I had to throw the bottle away
And have a chance with Joni, someday
Life is full of twists and turns
Ups and downs as Joni learns
A love gone bad a decade before
Awaits with Joni at his door
Jimmy can’t believe his eyes
She tells her story about Johnny’s lies
They kiss, they hug, and they share some wine
Together at last, just one more time
This is how our story ends
Childhood lovers and best friends
Inspired and in love, just like before
Together again, forevermore
Jimmy, Jimmy, have a good life
You’re the man, and now Joni’s your wife
After I heard how you’ve been wronged
I had make it right and finish this song
EDIT:
I had to make it right
