peer agreement (net): +2such a fright Explanation: I 'got such a fright' is cited as the meaning of this phrase (rather than 'six flags' which contextually makes little sense) which you will find in the following website link... http://www.mysongbook.de/msb/songs/j/johnnyco.html The 'such a fright' translation appears in the footnotes to the song lyrics.
