My name is johnny virgil,
I play this here guitar,
I play it for myself.
Got a heart that's full of music
A head that's full of songs
Got a love for nothing else.

Gonna take a look around me
Parades are marching by
Of the people who have made it
Who are never gonna die

My name is johnny virgil
And i'm gonna be a star.
Gonna get my share of fame.
Everybody's gonna love me,
Everybody's gonna care
Everyone will know my name

I've been listening to dylan
I've been listening to the dead
I've been listening to the music
That plays inside my head
I've been listening to the beatles
I've been listening to the who
And they don't know it yet,
But they're gonna listen to me too

My name is johnny virgil
Everybody did you hear
My name is johnny virgil
