Cover art for Johnny B. lyrics by Hooters

I think this song, once again, is about drugs. I think it is heroin.

It's a sleepless night, she's calling your name, It's a lonely ride, I know how you want her. Again and again you're chasin' a dream, yeah, But Johnny my friend, she's not what she seems.

He cant sleep, he needs drugs and he is going to get it. He´s lonely, cos drug users dont have real friends, again again using drugs, getting high. But drug isnt as good as it feels.

And when you drive her home, is she sittin' real close? Does she make you weak? Well, that's the way that she wants you. You're strung out again, she's taken you over, You've been here before, why can't you let go?

Now he have bought drugs. Heroin makes you weak, it takes you over. Johnny knows that, but he cant stop using it.

And when she calls your name, my sweet Johnny B., You can drive all night and you know she'll be waiting, To love you again, her kiss is her poison, Forever inside you, wherever you go.

When you need heroin you do anything and spend all night getting it. Drugs are everywhere and finally he can buy it. Heroin is poison.
