Lost John 04:04
Funniest thing ever I seen Was Lost John goin' through Bowling Green No hat on his head, no shoes on his feet Beggin the women for his bread and meat. John he’s long gone, lordy he’s Lost John He’s long gone to Mexico. Lost John sittin' on a railroad track Waiting for a freight train to come back Freight train come, never made no stop You ought to see Lost John getting on top John he’s long gone, lordy he’s Lost John He’s long gone to Mexico Had an old dog and his name was Will Run Lost John to the top of the hill Ain’t caught Lost John and he never will That old dog’s a runnin’ still John he’s long gone, lordy he’s Lost John He’s long gone to Mexico. John’s barefoot when he left his home He outrun a message on the telephone Along come a passenger a-skippin and a-flyin Missed the cowcatcher but he caught the blind John he’s long gone, lordy he’s Lost John He’s long gone to Mexico.
