JOHNNY’S SONG As recorded by Stealers Wheel (From the 1972 Album STEALERS WHEEL) [Intro] [Verse 1] Looking for something looking for one thing Trying to find anything that makes you feel Gotta keep goin’ don’t let it get you down Now you’ve got nothing to lose [Verse 2] You’ve been taking it so hard taking it on the head Don’t you know life’s as good as being dead? Gotta keep movin’ don’t let it get you down Now you’ve got nothing to lose [Chorus] When everyone around you tells you you’re doin’ fine They’re gonna drive you crazy So don’t close your eyes and swallow all those lies Don’t believe what you’ve been told ’Cause you’ll wake up one day Knowing nothing they say Can satisfy your soul [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] Gotta keep movin’ don’t let it get you down Now you’ve got nothing to lose [Chorus] When everyone around you tells you you’re doin’ fine They’re gonna drive you crazy So don’t close your eyes and swallow all those lies Don’t believe what you’ve been told ’Cause you’ll wake up one day Knowing nothing they say Can satisfy your soul [Verse 4] Looking for something looking for one thing Trying to find anything that makes you feel Gotta keep goin’ don’t let it get you down Now you’ve got nothing to lose [Outro]

Cette chanson évoque la quête de sens et de satisfaction dans un monde où il est facile de se laisser abattre par les épreuves. Le protagoniste exprime le besoin de continuer à avancer, malgré les défis, en soulignant qu’il n’y a rien à perdre. Il met en garde contre les mensonges que les autres peuvent nous dire, nous encourageant à ne pas les croire et à chercher notre propre vérité, car la satisfaction de l’âme ne peut venir que de l’intérieur. L’idée principale est de rester lucide face aux illusions et de garder espoir, même quand tout semble difficile.
