Description: A-1 Nyte Stand Productions Presents "The Legend of Johnny Numbers" Music written and sung by Autonomy1 Words by Nyte Byrd THE LEGEND OF JOHNNY NUMBERS Johnny had come along perhaps a score ago He was born back then and since that time his numbers, they did grow He brought up many topics that others would take in And no matter how it ended up, they all would talk of sin And like an old gunslinger, he'd be sought to draw his gun Some kept it all in humor but some did not know what was fun When some were in that old saloon, they thought him very rude To them, he seemed one sided, they'd try and change his mood But one by one they'd go down, they thought themself unique Until they too would come to know, their pride he did not seek The others at the tables, with their drinks in hand Would watch with silent laughter as he'd be the one left to stand Every week a stranger would prance on into town And think he'd be so different to take old Johnny down In time some did see the purpose of his goal Some took longer to see this, they played their foolish roll I was not unique myself, we once stared each other down But when night had turned into day we both had come around Some think this man is angry, some think that he's a fool But if they really knew him they'd see that he is cool Just like a smart old spider, he'd weave himself a web Someone would always walk right in, another foolish reb Johnny Numbers made his fame perhaps a thousand times A score or more that number, but never on his dime. Some got to know the true man, the ones he knew as friends They knew of all his smiles and good sense. Johnny saved his bullets, he'd use the same one twice, And his words were polished, he always dressed so nice. And those who will remember and perhaps have even learned That to truly know a man of character is something that is earned. Johnny Numbers vanished, no one knows for sure Some say he's dead, some living, he left us in allure Legend has it that he can be seen just like a ghost They say he walks the graveyard here by his marker post Let he who may have wisdom, within the harshy din May hear him yet just whistlin' like a nomad in the wind. |

I miss talking to you!! you better keep in touch! Sometimes you seemed to be the only one I could talk to..Glad to see you! __________________________________________________ | |
| NyteByrd7 ::: Favorites 2008-01-29 20:10:36 Doing well, thanks. Glad you remembered and enjoyed the video. I thought having this downloaded to make it something to post would be a nice tribute to A1 who recently passed away. He was a talented musician and will be missed. My friend Ricky did the work on the download here and did an excellent job, which I greatly appreciated. Stay well. You were one of the first posters on a forum I got to know some years back, so it was real nice to see you post to this here. __________________________________________________ | |
