San Cisco - John's Song lyrics
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
We were on the roof one day,
when suddeny I heard Jack say "Look out for that crack!"
Phewhack! I was lying on my back
When I was just your age, I was already working
For a shearling a day
It was just enough for mom to say
Ohhhh Johnny you make me so proud!
Pa would come home from work,San Cisco - John's Song - http://motolyrics.com/san-cisco/johns-song-lyrics.html
and say "John, one day, you'll work with me down at the factory."
but I don't wanna work in no factory
So I packed my bags and I headed for the tree.
I was only away from home for about an hour
But i was home in time for tea
I said very (???) that I didn't want to work in no factory.
Pa said John you're a second-class citizen,
and 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 can be, and more.
Daddy 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.
