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
"We were on the roof one day,
When suddenly 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 shilling a day
It was just enough to make ma say,
Pa would come home from work,
And say, "John, one day, you'll work with me down at the factory."
But I don't want to 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 politely 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."
And then he 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."
