Johnny Never Backs Down

Lyrics

[Verse 1] They call him Johnny, never backs down. Small-town outlaw, tearing through the town. Engine screaming loud, V8 alive. Living every day on the edge of the line. [Pre-Chorus] He hears that radio calling his name. White-knuckle roads and a shotgun frame. [Chorus] Blue lights in the mirror, dust in the sky. Blue lights in the mirror, he keeps rolling by. Can’t cage a legend, can’t tame that fire. Burning hot, burning hot, like a tire. [Verse 2] Mama said, “Boy, you better come home.” He left at midnight with a tank full of stone. Blacktop shaking under those boots. Every mile behind him telling the truth. [Pre-Chorus] He hears that radio calling his name. White-knuckle roads and a shotgun frame. [Chorus] Blue lights in the mirror, dust in the sky. Blue lights in the mirror, he keeps rolling by. Can’t cage a legend, can’t tame that fire. Burning hot, burning hot, like a tire. [Bridge] If they ask where he went, say he chased the dawn. If they ask what he wanted, say he was gone. [Chorus] Blue lights in the mirror, dust in the sky. Blue lights in the mirror, he keeps rolling by. Can’t cage a legend, can’t tame that fire. Burning hot, burning hot, like a tire.
