You want the stdout switch:
./john --whatever-options-you-want-to-use --stdout > somefile.txt
PS
I know that some of this is a little intimidating at first but if you
want to understand this (or any program) it really helps to read the
documentation. Your answer is line 11 of johns canned help:
$ ./john
John the Ripper password cracker, version 1.7.2
Copyright (c) 1996-2006 by Solar Designer and others
Homepage: http://www.openwall.com/john/
Usage: john [OPTIONS] [PASSWORD-FILES]
--single "single crack" mode
--wordlist=FILE --stdin wordlist mode, read words from FILE or stdin
--rules enable word mangling rules for wordlist mode
--incremental[=MODE] "incremental" mode [using section MODE]
--external=MODE external mode or word filter
--stdout[=LENGTH] just output candidate passwords [cut at LENGTH]
Spend a little time reading all of the documentation in the doc
directory, but especially these files (in order of usefulness):
