歌曲歌詞
They Took John Away - The Springfields
Written by：Sharp
They took John away this mornin'
They took John away this mornin'
They took John away this mornin'
And he ain't comin' home no more
He ain't comin' home no more
Now John was a hard working fella
Who shove a coal from mourn till dusk
He was married
To a girl named Stella
In no me place by the spent and her
Stella was a half line woman
Who didn't care about settling down
So and John went to work each mornin'
That when Stella starts messing around
That's the reason why they took John away this mornin'
They took John away this mornin'
They took John away this mornin'
And he ain't comin' home no more
He ain't comin' home no more
Now John got a postman letter
And it said Stella was so true
She was frightened with a toll together
Oh her mother and fast and low
While John was digging in that cave man
I woke up like a lumber jack
Now Stella was making woopy
Stella making a bull jike
That's the reason why they took John away this mornin'
They took John away this mornin'
They took John away this mornin'
And he ain't comin' home no more
He ain't comin' home no more
While John left the cave man holy
He took the car valley he me back home
But the shadows in the hollow window
Tell Stella wasn't home alone
So seeking in the back board screen door
While I'm alone the looking fire
And the smoke cleared the way
Dear brothers
John was the only one alive
That's the reason why they took John away this mornin'
They took John away this mornin'
They took John away this mornin'
And he ain't comin' home no more
He ain't comin' home no more
Cause' he'd had his first date on prison
Cause' he'd had his first date on prison
Cause' he'd had his first date on prison
And he ain't comin' home
No more
