| Yeah baby | |
| This here's a story about Lost John | |
| Lost John done flew the coop | |
| How many long gone? | |
| Lost John standin' by the railroad track | |
| Waitin' for the freight train to come back | |
| Freight train come back and never made no stop | |
| Lost John thought he'd have to ride on top | |
| Well, he's long, long, long gone | |
| And he's long, long, long gone | |
| Yeah, Lost John came into the country woman's house | |
| Sat down there as quiet, just as quiet as a mouse | |
| She said, “Now Mister Lost John, be my friend | |
| Be my friend up until the end” | |
| Well, he's long, long, long gone | |
| (Well, I'm talkin' 'bout it) | |
| And he's long, long, long gone | |
| (Yeah, he came in 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 | |
| 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 cop is on my trail and soon be here” | |
| Well, I'm long, long, long gone | |
| Well, he's long, long, long gone | |
| (Makin' a pair of shoes of his own) | |
| Well, they caught Lost John, put him in the pen | |
| Summer break and gone and now he's out again | |
| If anybody asks you who sung this song | |
| Tell 'em Lonnie Donegan been here and gone | |
| Well, he's long, long, long gone | |
| Well, he's long, long, long gone | |
| One more time | |
| Well, he's long, long, long gone | |
| (He's goin', he's goin') | |
| Well, he's long, long, gone |
| Yeah baby | |
