I've laid around and played around
|
This old town too long
|
Summer's almost gone
|
Yes, winter's comin' on
|
I've laid around and played around
|
This old town too long
|
And I feel like I gotta travel on
|
|
Poppa writes to Johnny
|
But Johnny can't come home
|
Johnny can't come home
|
No, Johnny can't come home
|
Poppa writes to Johnny
|
But Johnny can't come home
|
Cause he's been on the chain gang too long
|
|
I've laid around and played around
|
This old town too long
|
Summer's almost gone
|
Yes, winter's comin' on
|
I've laid around and played around
|
This old town too long
|
And I feel like I gotta travel on
|
|
High sheriff and police riding after me
|
Riding after me, yes, coming after me
|
High sheriff and police coming after me
|
And I fee like I gotta travel on
|
|
I've laid around and played around
|
This old town too long
|
Summer's almost gone
|
Yes, winter's comin' on
|
I've laid around and played around
|
This old town too long
|
And I feel like I gotta travel on
|
|
Want to see my honey
|
Want to see her bad
|
Want to see her bad
|
Oh, want to see her bad
|
Want to see my honey
|
Want to see her bad,
|
She's the best girl
|
This poor boy ever had
|
|
I've laid around and played around
|
This old town too long
|
Summer's almost gone
|
Yes, winter's comin' on
|
I've laid around and played around
|
This old town too long
|
And I feel like I gotta travel on
|
