Van Morrison - Lost John слова песни
Ha!
This here`s a story about Lost John
Lost John done flew the coop!
Hee!
How many long gone?
Lost John standin` by the railroad track
Waitin` for the freight train to come back
Freight train came back and never made no stop
Lost John thought he`d have to ride on top
Well he`s long, long, long gone (woo-yeah)
And he`s long, long, long gone
Yeah, lost John came into the country woman`s house
Sat down it was quiet, just as quiet as a mouse
She said, "Now Mister Lost John, be my friend,
Be my friend up until the end."
`Cause he`s long, long, long gone (what I`m talkin` `bout)
Now that he`s long, long, long gone
(Yeah came into the country woman`s house)
Lost John came into a country woman`s house
Sat there as quiet, quiet as a mouse
Said, "Mister Lost John be my friend,
Be my friend until the end."
Well, I`m long, long, long gone
Well, I`m long, long, long gone
Yeah, she said, "Lost John don`t you have no fear,
I`m sending for the porter, gonna buy some beer."
He said, "Now woman don`t you buy no beer,
The company`s on my trail and-a soon be here
`Cause I`m long, long, long gone
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Well he`s long, long, long gone
(Make it a pair of shoes instead)
Well they caught Lost John
Put `em in the pen
Cell break went down
And now he`s out again
If anybody asks you
Who sung this song
Tell `em Lonnie Donegan
Been `ere and gone
Well he`s long, long, long gone (ooone)
Well he`s long, long, long gone (one more time)
Well he`s long, long, long gone
(He goin`, he goin`)
Well he`s long, long, long gone.
(Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba).
