DOWN AT JOHNNY’S PAD<\/span><\/b>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

\n\u00a9Trev Teasdel, Johnny Adams Coventry April 1973
<\/b><\/span>
\nDigging the sounds on the stereo<\/span>
\nSwopping songs, yeah yeah<\/span>
\nSometimes slagging, sometimes talking<\/span>
\nLearning our craft like a sponge<\/span>
\nDown at Johnny’s pad.<\/span>
\nDown at Johnny’s pad<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nLong distance walking<\/span>
\nwith guitars on our backs<\/span>
\nAlways learning, always yearning<\/span>
\nLearning our craft like a sponge.<\/span>
\nDown at Johnny’s pad. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
\nDown at Johnny’s pad.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nCoffee’s on to a twelve bar blues<\/span>
\nKettle whistles like the Midnight Special<\/span>
\nClothes are ragged, holes in our shoes<\/span>
\nlearning our craft like a sponge<\/span>
\nDown at Johnny’s pad.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nThe dole is our shepherd<\/span>
\nbut our hopes are higher<\/span>
\nJohnny’s guitar licks<\/span>
\nburn with fire<\/span>
\nWe’re learning our trade like a sponge<\/span>
\nDown at Johnny’s pad.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nBridge<\/span>
\nJasmine flower burnin’ self-raising<\/span><\/i>
\nto the spirtitual sky -hi..<\/span><\/i>
\nNourishes the soil that sows our songs<\/span><\/i>
\nwhen we’re down at Johnny’s pad,<\/span><\/i>
\nDown at Johnny’s pad.<\/span><\/i>
\n
<\/span>
\nAnd the words we sing<\/span>
\nare shadows of the songs inside our heads<\/span>
\nbut we’re learning our trade like a sponge<\/span>
\nDown at Johnny’s pad.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
