| 作词 : Springsteen | |
| Well they closed down the auto plant in Mahwah late that month | |
| Ralph went out lookin' for a job but he couldn't find none | |
| He came home too drunk from mixin'Tanqueray and wine | |
| He got a gun shot a night clerk now they call'm Johnny 99 | |
| Down in the part of town where when you hit a red light you don't stop | |
| Johnny's wavin' his gun around and threatenin' to blow his top | |
| When an off duty cop snuck up on him from behind | |
| Out in front of the Club Tip Top they slapped the cuffs on Johnny 99 | |
| Well the city supplied a public defender but the judge was Mean John Brown | |
| He came into the courtroom and stared young Johnny down | |
| Well the evidence is clear gonna let the sentence son fit the crime | |
| Prison for 98 and a year and we'll call it even Johnny 99 | |
| A fistfight broke out in the courtroom they had to drag Johnny's girl away | |
| His mama stood up and shouted "Judge don't take my boy this way" | |
| Well son you got a statement you'd like to make | |
| Before the bailiff comes to forever take you away | |
| Now judge judge I had debts no honest man could pay | |
| The bank was holdin' my mortgage and they was takin' my house away | |
| Now I ain't sayin' that makes me an innocent man | |
| But it was more 'n all this that put that gun in my hand | |
| Well your honor I do believe I'd be better off dead | |
| And if you can take a man's life for the thoughts that's in his head | |
| Then won't you sit back in that chair and think it over judge one more time | |
| And let 'em shave off my hair and put me on that execution line |
