just a john

i'm like my daddy i'm much the same

he loved to play that cheatin' game

takin' my mother for a ride

always havin' something on the side

after some scotches

some wine and some beers

daddy'd come clean and he'd cry real tars

he'd beg forgiveness swear he'd behave

no longer king

he became her knave

you know that woody guthrie said it son

the are more pretty girls than one"
