G
Well, John does some singin', they call him a star
   G            D         G
He plays with a hillbilly band
   G
He goes lots of places, picks his guitar
    A7                       D
Old John ain't a home lovin' man
G
John's got a woman, he calls her his queen
   G             D         G
He buys her them city made clothes
G
She's 'bout the sweetest that I've ever seen
          G                D          GD
There are some things that John never knows


Chorus:
     C                                     
When Johnny's out tourin', I'm out with his queen
G            D      G 
Flashin' his money around
   C
So if you look for me and I can't be seen
              G               D              G
Well, you can figure that old John's back in town


When John's out a-tourin' I wear his best suit
Smoke up his four-bit cigars
I lie to his woman and wear out his boots
Chauffer his limosuine cars
When John's makin' money he keeps on the go
So if you should hear it around
Please buy one of his records or go see his show
Help me keep old John out of town

Chorus
