《My Son， John (LP Version)(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] My Son, John (LP版) - Tom Paxton

[00:00:02] My son John was a good boy and good to me

[00:00:08] When we had hard times well he stood by me

[00:00:13] We were in work and out of work and on the go

[00:00:19] If he had complaints I never heard of one

[00:00:24] He would pitch in and help me like a full grown man

[00:00:30] My son John John my son

[00:00:42] My son John went to college and he made his way

[00:00:47] Had to earn every penny but he paid his way

[00:00:53] He worked summers and holidays and through the year

[00:00:59] And it was no easy struggle that he won

[00:01:04] But he laughed at the ones who thought he had it hard

[00:01:10] My son John John my son

[00:01:21] My son John got his uniform and went away

[00:01:27] With a band playing marches he was sent away

[00:01:32] And he wrote me a letter when he had the time

[00:01:38] He was loosing his buddies one by one

[00:01:44] And I prayed and tried not to read between the lines

[00:01:49] My son John John my son

[00:01:55] My son John came home yesterday; he's here to stay

[00:02:01] Not a word to his father have I heard him say

[00:02:07] He seems glad to be home but I can't be sure

[00:02:12] When I ask him what he'd seen and done

[00:02:18] He went up to his bedroom and he closed the door

[00:02:24] My son John John my son

[00:02:29] He went up to his bedroom and he closed the door

[00:02:35] My son John John my son
