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).



[Talking part ending leads into "Goin' Home"]:

Thankyou! thankyou! (oh yeah Mike - yea). Thankyou very much. Now we like to have a surprise for you tonight, and bring on a friend of mine from way back, Dr John. (wooooo) Yeah. We're gonna do this a, we're gonna do this song that was written by a, way back aways a British trumpet player/guitarist (ha ha ha ha ha) Ken Colyer (yeah that's the man). Goes like this... one, okay, one...

[leads into "Goin' Home"]
