  • Jonny don't leave me
    You said you'd love me forever
    Honey, believe me
    I'll have your heart on a platter

    Might you recall
    We've got a small family business (business)
    And the family won't like this

    They'll bust your knee caps
    Ooh-wop, de-do-wop-de-do
    They'll bust your knee caps
    Ooh-wop, de-do-wop-de-do

    Jonny you told me
    You were no fool, you were no chump
    Then you got cold feet
    Now all you'll be is a speed bump

    It's something we call (something we call)
    Oh, just a small family business (business)
    And the family won't like this

    They'll bust your knee caps
    Ooh-wop, de-do-wop-de-do
    They'll bust your knee caps
    That's what they're going to do

    Jonny there's still time
    Together I know, we'd go so far
    I'll tell uncle Rocco
    To call off the guys with the crowbars

    You call it crime
    We call it smart family business (business)
    And the family is famous

    (Let's bust some knee caps)

    Bust your knee caps
    Ooh, bust your knee caps

    It's such a shame
    That you became such an issue
    Oh dear Jonny, I'll miss you

    They'll bust your knee caps
    That's what they're going to do (ooh-wop, de-do-wop-de-do)
    They'll bust your knee caps
    Probably some other stuff, too (ooh-wop, de-do-wop-de-do)

    They'll bust your knee caps
    Ooh-wop, de-do-wop-de-do
    They'll bust your knee caps
    Ooh, yeah, they're coming for you

    Bust your knee caps
    Ooh, bust your knee caps
    Bust your knee caps
    Ooh, bust your knee caps Writer/s: Jack Conte, Nataly Conte
