Johnnie's Comin' Home Lyrics

Bum bumm bumm)

(Bum bumm bumm)

(Bum bumm bumm)

(Bum bumm bumm bumm)

Ridin' in a boxcar

On the old Sante Fe

On my way from Texas

To California

I feel the time has come

To rest my weary bones

So I'm writin' here

The very last will

Of hobo Jonnie Jones.

(Bum bumm bumm)

(Bum bumm bumm)

(Bum bumm bumm)

(Bum bumm bumm bumm)

To my sister Kate

In New Orleans

I leave the memory of those things

She fed me

When I knocked upon her door

I'm leavin' her

That woodpile job

She can have my goldwatch bob (?)

Farewell, Johnnnie's comin' home.

Farewell, Johnnnie's comin' home.

(Bum bumm bumm)

(Bum bumm bumm)

(Bum bumm bumm)

(Bum bumm bumm bumm)

To my brother Sam

In Alabam'

I leave the memory of that ham

We stole

From farmer Brown one day.Johnnie Ray - Johnnie's Comin' Home - http://motolyrics.com/johnnie-ray/johnnies-comin-home-lyrics.html

I'm leavin' you

The dreams we had

Sorry mine

Turned out so bad.

Farewell, Johnnnie's comin' home.

Farewell, Johnnnie's comin' home.

(Bum bumm bumm)

(Bum bumm bumm)

(Bum bumm bumm)

(Bum bumm bumm bumm)

To my daddy

In my old home town

If my daddy's still around

Then save

That fishin' rod we made

Daddy take that fishin' rod

And catch us both a mess of cod

Farewell, Johnnnie's comin' home.

Farewell, Johnnnie's comin' home.

(Bum bumm bumm)

(Bum bumm bumm)

(Bum bumm bumm)

(Bum bumm bumm bumm)

To my mother up

In heaven above

Awaitin' there

For me with love

Tell her I never more will roam

Mother, mother, wait for me

Open up those gates for me

Mamma your Jonnie's comin' home

(Come home)

Mamma your Jonnie's comin' home

(Come home)

Mamma your Jonnie's comin' home!
