Lyrics:
[Intro] I once met this old wise man He invited me into his caravan We sat down for a cup of tea He sat down very gingerly He said he's still got a sore back From the time on the roof with Jack [Verse 2] "We were on the roof one day When suddenly I heard Jack say 'Look out for that crack!' Phewhack! I was lying on my back." [Verse 3] When I was just your age, I was already working For a shilling a day It was just enough to make ma say "Oh, Johnny you make me so proud!" [Verse 4] Pa would come home from work And say, "John, one day, you'll work with me down at the factory." But I don't want to work in no factory So I packed my bags and I headed for the trees [Verse 5] I was only away from home for about an hour But I was home in time for tea And I said very politely that I didn't want to work in no factory [Verse 6] And Pa said, "John you're a second-class citizen You're never gonna get very far." I said, "Pa, I'm gonna see the world, I'm gonna see it all I'm gonna be all that I could be, and more." [Outro] With that he finished his cup of tea Reached into his pocket and pulled out a key He said, "You can have my old caravan, I won't be needing it anymore Because I've see all I wanna see, and more."
