BENDED ELBOW BENDED KNEE
ANTONIO ANDRADE, 17927 MUSIC
FREEBO, BASSLINE MUSIC

JOHNNY WALKED SLOWLY DOWN HIS SMALL TOWN STREET
A DAILY DECISION ON HIS SMALL TOWN BEAT
THE CORNER HAD A STEEPLE AND A NEON LIGHT
A CHURCH ON ONE SIDE, A BAR ON THE RIGHT
FILLED WITH TROUBLE, HE WANTED TO CONFESS
BARTENDER/PREACHER, WHO KNOWS BEST
SHARE HIS SORROW TO A SMILING FACE
SEARCHING FOR WISDOM IN A FRIENDLY PLACE

BENDED ELBOW BENDED KNEE
YEARNING FOR TRANQUILITY
IT COULD BE YOU BUT IT MIGHT BE ME
BENDED ELBOW BENDED KNEE

A STATUE IN THE CORNER WEARS A CROWN OF THORNS
A YUENGLING DISPLAY SHOWS DOGS BLOWING HORNS
JOHNNY TALKS TO THE SPIRIT FROM HIS PEW IN THE CHURCH
THE SPIRITS TALK TO JOHNNY IN THE BAR ON HIS PERCH
BENDED ELBOW BENDED KNEE
​YEARNING FOR TRANQUILITY
IT COULD BE YOU BUT IT MIGHT BE ME
BENDED ELBOW BENDED KNEE

A HANDSHAKE, A HUG AS HE COMES AND GOES
BARS AND CHURCHES LOVE THE CASH THAT FLOWS
IT’S PRETTY MUCH THE SAME EITHER SIDE OF THE STREET
NEITHER MAKES JOHNNY FEEL COMPLETE

BENDED ELBOW BENDED KNEE
YEARNING FOR TRANQUILITY
IT COULD BE YOU BUT IT MIGHT BE ME
BENDED ELBOW BENDED KNEE

NOW JOHNNY WALKS FASTER DOWN HIS SMALL TOWN STREET
A NEW DECISION ON HIS DAILY BEAT
HE GOT TO THE STEEPLE AND THE NEON LIGHT
BUT HE JUST KEPT WALKING CAUSE THAT FELT RIGHT

BENDED ELBOW BENDED KNEE
YEARNING FOR TRANQUILITY
IT COULD BE YOU BUT IT MIGHT BE ME
BENDED ELBOW BENDED KNEE
