A Tribute to Robert Palmer.
Lyrics:
Johnnys always running around
Trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm
That he aint 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 hes willing to learn
When he decides hes a fool
Johnny says hell 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 hell be caught
Without a second thought
Running around
Johnny feels hes wasting his breath
Trying to talk sense to her
Mary says hes lacking a real
Sense of proportion
So she combs her hair
Knows he tires easily
Johnnys always running around
Trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm
That he aint lonely
Mary counts the walls
Says she should be used to it
Johnnys always running around
Running around

Always loved this song. I remember I was a young man at 19 when this song came out. Then many years later when I was 30 I got involved with some young 19 year old and she in turn loved this song too after I introduced her to it. ...always think of you Ana...

RIP, Robert. Loved your music. You'll always be beautiful to gaze upon and listen to. Has anyone else noticed his slight resemblance to a few different actors over the years, (Rob Lowe, James Cagney, Willem Dafoe & Russell Crowe)?

Why do people act like such pricks on YouTube? People would never talk like this to one another if face to face but a soon as you have anonymity people turn into assholes. We all have opinions but if a person's differs from your the first response shouldn't be "fuck-off" and immediate name calling. Enjoy the music and relax, it all good. Peace people!!!
