Long John walkin' around in the rain
He's long gone Lost John
Long gone Lost John
No hat on his head no shoes on his feet
He's a beggin the women for his meat
I had an ol' dog and his name was
like a rabbit through Bowlin' Green
Lost John walked around in rain
Around the corner left him sittin' by the ol' railroad
