I've laid around and played around this old town too long |
|
Summer's almost gone, winter's comin' on |
|
I've laid around and played around this old town too long |
|
And I feel like I've gotta travel on |
|
High sheriff and police are ridin' after me |
|
Ridin' after me, oh, they're ridin' after me |
|
High sheriff and police are ridin' after me |
|
And I feel like I've gotta travel on |
|
Papa writes to Johnny, Johnny can't come home |
|
No, Johnny can't come home, Johnny can't come home |
|
Papa writes to Johnny but Johnny can't come home |
|
'Cause he's been on that chain gang too long |
|
Gotta see my baby, gotta see her bad |
|
Gotta see her bad, oh, I gotta see her bad |
|
Gotta see my baby, gotta see her bad |
|
She's the best friend this poor boy ever had |
|
I've laid around and played around this old town too long |
|
Summer's almost gone, winter's comin' on |
|
I've laid around and played around this old town too long |
|
And I feel like I've gotta travel on |
|
Oh, I feel like I've gotta travel on |
|
Oh, I feel like I've gotta travel on |
