    So I ran down and I said, in her good ear
    "Debbie, why did you do it?"
    She raised her head, smiled, and said
    "I did it for Johnny"

    Johnny
    Well, like, who's Johnny
    Answer me, Debbie, who's Johnny
    Does anybody here know Johnny
    Are you Johnny
    There was one guy named Johnny
    But he was a total geek
    He always had food in his braces
    Answer me, Debbie, who's Johnny
    Oh god, this is like that movie "Citizen Kane"
    You know, where you later find out Rosebud was a sled
    But we'll never know who Johnny was
    Cause, like, she's dead

    How many local dollars for a local anesthetic? The Johnny on the corner wasn't very sympathetic.

    Nine was the robber who left looking pale
    Eight was the tiger who chased him to jail
    Seven was the blackbird flew off to Havana
    Six was the monkey who stole the banana
    Five was the turtle who crawled off to bed
    Four was the dog who slid home on a sled
    Three was the cat who pounced on the rat
    Two was the rat who left with the cat
    And one was Johnny
    One was Johnny

    The other day I got invited to a party, but I stayed home instead.
    Just me and my pal Johnny Walker, and his brothers Black and Red.

    Someone opened a closet door, and out stepped Johnny B. Goode, playin' guitar just like ringin' a bell, and looking like he should.

    Johnny come lately on a Saturday night
    Singin' how de do
    Backstreet a boogie in the house of delight
    Where they steal the show
    The money come sour but the ladies are sweet
    It's a love affair
    Whole place rockin', people stompin' their feet
    A when the gang's all there
    He gets his woman every night for free
    He's out there rockin' like you wouldn't believe.......

    Not a friend in the flesh per se, just the comfort that comes from a bottle of Johnnie Walker when one is alone on the road:

    Johnny's taking care of things for a while, and his style is so right for troubadours.
