An insurance agent named Johnny B. Blank
Ran a run-down debit on the poor West Bank
In the hardest of times he endeavored to be
The number one man in the company

"I'd prefer not to say what's become of my pay"
He stood up and spoke at a meeting one day
"But I hereby intend to reverse this trend
To triple my paycheck before the year's end"

"Good luck Johnny Blank" someone said with a smirk
"But the fact is the West Bank is all out of work"
Johnny looked at his colleague spoke steady and clear
"I'll be number one by the end of the year"

Oh Johnny
Positive thinking is all that you need
To succeed

From that day on Johnny Blank was possessed
Making pitch after pitch with fanatical zest
But no matter how hard he would push and persuade
He'd hear the sad song of the oil trade

"The rigs are shut down and the boats are asleep
It's not worth their while because oil's too cheap
My husband and brother my nephew and son
Have all been laid off as for money there's none"

Oh Johnny
Positive thinking is all that you need
To succeed

So Johnny would leave but would not overlook
To write down their names in his prospect book
And always he did the best he could do
And always the list of his prospects grew

Then at last the economy started to change
The price had gone up in the oil exchange
Business was booming as none had foreseen
From Buras to Boutte and in between

Oh Johnny
Positive thinking is all that you need
To succeed

Now Johnny B. Blank was on top of the world
As dozens of pages of prospects unfurled
He'd written their names when they couldn't afford
But now they had money and how it poured

In the last few months of that famous year
Johnny B. Blank secured his career
He tripled his pay for a job well done
And true to his word he became number one

Oh Johnny
Positive thinking is all that you need
To succeed

Oh Johnny
Positive thinking is all that you need
To succeed
