Hi gang,

I feel really stupid but I'm trying to find the title of this really old Seger tune. Maybe it's not a Seger tune, dunno. Has a chorus like:

She said noooooo
Janet Janet noooooooo

or maybe
Jenna Jenna noooooo

Or maybe nothing like that. It's been a couple years since I've heard it. Maybe it's not even Seger. I've been scouring a couple Seger sites and can't find anything like it.

Thanks! Chris

    Dang, I have no clue. I have two of his CD's (which by no means makes me a Seger expert!), but I can't place it.

    Bob Seger East Side Story:

    Beneath the bare light bulb above
    She gazed into the eyes of love
    Bathed in the dirty neon lights
    She begged him "don't go out tonight"
    If we work out somehow maybe
    We could find a way out baby
    And he laughed and said "I got to go"

    And she cried "no"
    Johnny Johnny no
    Oh Johnny Johnny no

    His arms were warm and strong and young
    "I promise I won't hurt no one"
    "Oh baby when you gonna learn,
    Them folks uptown got bread to burn,

    When they see me flash my knife,
    They'll be fearin' for their live,
    They won't give me trouble this I know"
    And she cried no
    Oh Johnny Johnny no
    Johnny Johnny no

    [organ solo]

    The night passed like a thousand years
    The tenemant room had culled her tears
    Then came a knock upon the door
    Two men she'd never seen before

    "Did you know Johnny Brown miss?
    We hate to tell you this but
    Has he a relative you know?"
    And she cried no
    Oh Johnny Johnny no
    Oh Johnny why'd you go?
