written by Warren Zevon 1992 Zevon Music Inc.. Johnny never knew what hit him. When he first met Julia. He used to be so wild and free. Time treats everybody like a fool. You gotta roll with the punches. The sun is sinkin' low. You gotta roll with the punches. Honey we ain't never goin' home. Johnny had a '57 Chevy. With four-on-the-floor and a 429. We used to take it out to Wild Horse Pike. Run it out to the end of the line. You gotta roll with the punches. The sun is sinkin' low. You gotta roll with the punches. Honey we ain't never goin' home.
