《John》歌词

[00:00:00] John - Indigo Girls

[00:00:29] Yeah when I go over yonder I will see my mother

[00:00:34] My sister and my father but my brother is going to hell

[00:00:39] Yeah they hung him from the gallows

[00:00:43] As the sun turned red from yellow

[00:00:46] And the crowd they heard him halting

[00:00:55] And they sighed with much relief

[00:01:03] The preacher asked him for any last words

[00:01:06] My brother spit on to his clean shirt

[00:01:15] And he smiled without redemption

[00:01:19] And said this is one soul God don't need

[00:01:35] Oh yes I loved him but I won't miss him

[00:01:44] As he's burning and he's twisting

[00:01:48] For his heartless dedication

[00:01:51] To the devil and it's creed

[00:02:09] Oh as a child we called him rotten

[00:02:25] Till he was lonely and forgotten

[00:02:40] And he revenged our constant jeering

[00:03:27] Oh with his every word and deed

[00:03:27] Oh yeah and for my contribution

[00:03:27] Oh and the souls lack of retribution

[00:03:27] I would ask the Lord's forgiveness on my very bended knee

[00:03:28] Oh it's the tale of Johnny Rotten

[00:03:28] Yeah who was lonely and forgotten

[00:03:28] And it's the tale of my only brother

[00:03:28] And it's the tale of one bad seed
