Getaway John
Lyricist:Dave Guard
Get away, get away Get away, get away Poor John
John Hardy was a fightin' man Carried a razor ev'ry day He killed a man in Mobile town You ought to see my Johnny get away You ought to see my Johnny get away
Get away Get away, get away Poor John
John Hardy was standin' at the bar So drunk he could not see Along came a sheriff with a warrant in his hand 'Johnny boy, you'd better come with me Yeah, Johnny boy, you'd better come with me'
John Hardy had a pretty little gal Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Kept her dressed in blue He saw her in the hangin' crowd Cryin', 'Johnny boy, I'll be true to you Johnny boy, I'll be true to you'
True to you True to you, true to you Poor, John
I've been to the East and I've been to the West Been this whole world 'round I've been to the North and I lived in the South This will be my buryin' ground This will be my buryin' ground
Well, I've been this wide world over Been this whole world 'round Been to the river and I've been baptized Take me to my buryin' ground
Get away, get away, get away
