Johnny moved to this big town
|
To be who he could be.
|
But the tough guys on the sidewalk
|
They don't want him to be free.
|
But he knows he has the power,
|
He knows someday they'll be dead.
|
The can't get him to turn around
|
He keeps walking straight ahead
|
|
'Cuz he's got attitude.
|
And it will get him through.
|
And he's got attitude,
|
And it will see him though.

Backstage Mary
|
She grew up with nothing but hunger in her purse.
|
All the fancy ladies tell her
|
"You'll only go from bad to worse."
|
But she just keeps on believing,
|
She tells them she's doing fine.
|
They get rich while she gets smart,
|
She's growing stronger all the time
|
|
'Cuz she's got attitude,
|
And it will get her through.
|
And she's got attitude,
|
And it will see her through.
|
|
Everybody knows who "they" are,
|
They need no address.
|
They make sure things are going their way,
|
And the country's in a mess.
|
As they buy that land, start that war,
|
keep those people poor,
|
They don't care if people aren't
|
Going to take it anymore.
|
|
And they've got attitude,
|
And it will get them through.
|
And they've got attitude,
|
And it will see them through.
