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).

Goes like this... one, okay, one...
