Johnny Lee is a country singer born in Texas City and raised on a dairy farm in Alta Loma, the community now part of Santa Fe, Texas, southeast of Houston. He came up through the Houston-area honky-tonk scene of the 1960s and 70s.
Beginning in 1968 he worked for about a decade with Mickey Gilley at Gilley's, the enormous Pasadena nightclub. His breakthrough came in 1980 with "Lookin' for Love," recorded for the "Urban Cowboy" soundtrack, which spent three weeks at number one on the country chart and crossed over into the pop top five.
