Junior Lyrics - John Mellencamp

Written by: John Mellencamp 

They call me Junior. 

I live here on the street. 

I earn two hundred dollars a week. 

I'd like to say 

"Hey, thanks a lot." 

I know I'm missin' something 

But I don't know what it is 

That I don't got.

I sit here watchin' 

The people down below. 

I try to imagine 

The places they may go. 

I don't know. 

I stay home a lot. 

I know I'm missin' something 

But I don't know what it is 

That I don't got. 

I see the world through the TV Guide, 

What a safe place for me to run. 

What a small little man I am. 

I'm afraid of everything 

From golden rules to airplanes. 

What a small little man I am.

They call me Junior. 

I'm caught up in this hell. 

Sometimes I feel better 

But I never do feel well. 

Jesus must have one hell of a plan for me. 

I know I'm missin' something 

But I don't know what it is 

That I don't got. 

And if I have anything to say 

About judgment day 

There'll be a crown in heaven 

For those who live this way. 

Anyway, 

You know exactly who you are. 

I see the world through the TV Guide, 

What a safe place for me to run. 

What a small little man I am. 

I'm afraid of everything 

From the golden rule to airplanes. 

What a small little man I am. 

They call me Junior. 

I live here on the street. 

I earn two hundred dollars a week. 

I'd like to say 

"Hey man, thanks a lot" 

My name is Junior 

(Chorus out)
