Yikes!, I meant pretty ride Shawn! - Lol. You’ll have to forgive me, as I had only a bronc-buster in the family we kids and the rodeo fans knew as Diamond Bill.

Johnnie’s Walking Back

Written by Shawn Wiese

Johnnie’s Walking Back

Verse:
We can make it last forever if we both do our part.
So I gave up the liquor and you gave up your pretty heart

Ain’t nothing like love when it’s right from the start
But I guess seven ain’t lucky and forever’s too far

Chorus:
Thought we were ok
Thought we were on track
Cause you said you were gonna stay
And I gave up all that Walker Black

But now you’re running away
Guess it’s all just an act
And now Johnnie’s Johnnie’s Walking Back
Yeah Johnnie’s walking back

Verse:
I could put all the blame on that year seven ache
Or just call it a game and except our fate

Ya know Johnnie ain’t a friend but he comes when I call
He’ll lend me a hand when I’m headed for a fall

Chorus:
Thought we were ok
Thought we were on track
Cause you said you were gonna stay
And I gave up all that Walker Black

But now you’re running away
Guess it’s all just an act
And now Johnnie’s Johnnie’s Walking Back

Chorus:
Thought we were ok
Thought we were on track
Cause you said you were gonna stay
And I gave up all that Walker Black

But now you’re running away
Guess it’s all just an act
And now Johnnie’s Johnnie’s Walking Back
Yeah Johnnie’s walking back
Yeah Johnnie’s walking back
