Текст песни Robert Palmer - Johnny & Mary

Johnny's always running around
Trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm
That he ain't lonely
Mary counts the walls
Knows he tires easily

Johnny thinks the world would be right
If it could buy truth from him
Mary says, "He changes his mind
More than a woman"
But she made her bed
Even when the chance was slim

Johnny says, "He's willing to learn"
When he decides he's a fool
Johnny says, "He'll live anywhere"
When he earns to time
Mary combs her hair
Says she should be used to it

Mary always hedges her bets
She never knows what to think
She says, "That he still acts
Like he is being discovered"
Scared that he'll be caught
Without a second thought running around

Johnny feels, he's wasting his breath
Trying to talk sense to her
Mary says, "He's lacking a real
Sense of proportion"
So she combs her hair
Knows he tires easily

Johnny's always running around
Trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm
That he ain't lonely
Mary counts the walls
Says, "She should be used to it"

Johnny's always running around
Running around
