The Man Who Was Too Loud

Though le loved to rock and roll

All these many years

He cared about the old people's

And little children's ears

Though he was a guitar man

He reflected and he vowed

Never will I ever be

No ne'er, ne'er again

The man who was too loud

Johnny's not a poor man

No, he never gets him down

Now that he is free he is not proud

He don't need the power

Just to make a sound

He is not the man that he used to be

Oh, no, the man who was too loud

I will play softly

I will play softly

I will play softly now

'cause I was the man who was too loud

It's not because he don't respect

The popular music style

You know I saw him open up

For the kind of the surf guitar

Do not think he does not like

The cheering of the crowd

No, he is glad that they came to see

The man who used to be

The man who was too loud

Johnny is a rich man

Yeah, he still gets around

He is glad to be the car who meowed

He don't need the power

Just to get his sound

He is not the man that he used to be

Oh no, the man who was too loud

I will play softly

I will play softly

I will play softly now

'cause I was the man who was too loud
