Gene Watson - John's Back in Town lyrics

rate me

Well, John does some singin', they call him a star

He plays with a hillbilly band

He goes lots of places, picks his guitar

Old John ain't a home lovin' man

John's got a woman, he calls her his queen

He buys her them city made clothes

She's 'bout the sweetest that I've ever seen

There are some things that John never knows

When Johnny's out tourin' I'm out with his queen

Flashin' his money around

So If you look for me and I can't be seen

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

When Johnny's out tourin' I'm out with his queen

Flashin' his money around

So If you look for me and I can't be seen

Well, you can figure that old John's back in town

(you can figure that old John's back in town)
