Lyrics:
(Olivia Newton-john/John Capek)
As a young girl I came here by the sea
To a new home for my family
It welcome us with open arms
A chance to live my
Lawd, Lawd. Gonna cause de death of me
John Henry, he had a woman
Her name was Mary Magdalene
She would go to de tunnel and sing for John
Jes'
how she doin', I just tell her come and fuck me
Shot his ass twenty times, damn, this nigga lucky (damn, that nigga lucky)
Gotta throw a party for
her heart broke and she died
And she left that bad land
To wait up in the sky
Free at last the payin' past
For all the wrong he did
First free
to see her sweet face when I wake
She makes me feel like a man
Oh oh
I can't recall
That she asked me for anything
As long as I wake by her side
all her love
Look in those beautiful eyes and know she's lucky 'cause
He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me
with a honeysuckle vine
Who's so lucky and gets to kiss her?
Black fly, that's right
Black fly, that's right
Flyin' round lookin' for a black cat
your lucky you can take her cross the rail road tracks
Where the man in the moon works his magic
On the second runner up of the 4H pageant
Seems like
And I'm standing over by the bandstand
Every eye gaping on John Finn's wife
Every eye gaping on John Finn's wife
Now John Finn's wife was something
I stood outside the Lucky Star
Staring at the flashing sign
It read: come on in and watch young
Scarlet's body come alive
Let her dance for you
her and drew her to the bank.
Her clothes all wet and muddy, they laid her on a plank.
Then sent for John Lewis to come to that place --
And brought
I look out my window and watch her as she passes by
I said to myself I'm such a lucky guy
To have a girl like her it's a dream come true
Oh, listen to my story, I'll tell you no lies,
How John Lewis did murder poor little Omie Wise.
He told her to meet him at Adams's Springs.
He
I look out my window and watch her as she passes by
I said to myself I'm such a lucky guy
To have a girl like her it's a dream come true
are really only ancient history.
Everyday goes by without a hitch,
you say the urge becomes an itch.
You say that I'm no go for you, that's rich,
or am
Are really only ancient history.
Everyday goes by without a hitch,
You say the urge becomes an itch.
You say that I`m no go for you, that`s rich,
you'll wait for me
I'll grow up someday you'll see
Savin' all my kisses just for you
Signed with love forever true
Slowly I read her note once more
John forgive us our sins
Dear John forgive us our sins
Dear John forgive us for our sins
Creator of all forgive us our sins
Dear John forgive us our sins
a charlatan, a mastermind
Or some lucky lady's design
Oh, what the devil, it's fun
His lady luck was his one companion
And by the silver and gold
His
Poor guy that man John Thomas
His woman truly was a devil
And she wasn't all that honest
She tore him down on every level
You're a no good lazy
And I'm standing over by the bandstand
Every eye gaping on John Finn's wife
Every eye gaping on John Finn's wife
Now John Finn's wife was something
cried and said she always knew he was up to no good
It broke her heart the night he died
And she made me promise I'd stand by your side
And try
of Brother John;
She felt his eyes and she walked up beside him,
And she took him by the hand,
She said, "Brother John, it's so hard to be holy,
Would
Written by John Barlow/Delbert McClinton 1990
I found her number, and the note she wrote
Deep in the pocket, of a real old coat
It just got by me
