Ballad of Johnny Horton

[Intro]
This is the story of Johnny Horton whom everyone loved so dear
Johnny was a great friend of ours and we're all gonna miss him down here
This song is my tribute to the late Johnny Horton

[Verse 1]
Just a young country singer with friends young and old
The songs he sang with the feelin' from the heart, made a man's blood run cold
You can ask the folks in Austin who came to see his show
He'd been out there singin' for the folks who loved him so
Johnny Horton went to meet our Lord

[Verse 2]
He started out from Austin to Shreveport LA
Ridin' hard in the blizzard of fog, could hardly see the way
He fought the bloddy battle through night, mist and fog
But the battle was all ovеr at the next road that crossed
Johnny Horton wеnt to meet our Lord

[Verse 3]
The headlights were showin' but not very far
The fog was thick and the road was wet
As he drove on through the dark
Then came the crossroads, hazy was the view
Two cars met in darkness, Johnny's life was through
Johnny Horton went to meet our Lord
Johnny Horton went to meet our Lord
