Neil Young – Johnny Magic lyrics

Johnny Magic had a way with metal
Had a way with machines
One day in a garage far away he met destiny

In the form of a heavy metal Continental
She was born to run on a proud highway
Then the whole world started running out of money
People losing their jobs right here in Wichita, Wichita

The home of the heavy metal Continental
Where the motor-head messiah was tuning the system in
(Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic)

She burst from the garage in a blaze of silence
Disappearing down Douglas at lightning speed
Before the big metal door came crashing down in Wichita

The home of the heavy metal Continental
Where the motor-head messiah was tuning the system in
(Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic)
Wichita

The home of the heavy metal Continental
She was born to run on a proud highway

Now she goes long range on domestic green fuel
100 miles per gallon is the Continental rule
Out on the Kansas two-lane flats near Wichita, Wichita

The home of the heavy metal Continental
She was born to run on a proud highway
(Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic)

The motor-head messiah went to Washington
To show them what he'd done
The senators and congressmen came down in Washington

And they rode in the heavy metal Continental
She was born to run on a proud highway
(Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic)
Wichita

The motor-head messiah was tuning the system in
(Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic)
Wichita

The motor-head messiah was tuning the system in
(Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic)
Wichita

The motor-head messiah was tuning the system in
(Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic)
Wichita

The motor-head messiah was tuning the system in
(Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic, Johnny Magic)
Wichita
