Widespread Panic - PAPA JOHNNY ROAD lyrics

Down Poppie Johnny Road, nobody hears your name

Life that I was lovin', like stealin' a ride on a train

Wanna steal a ride on a train

Crawlin' in the dirt all night

I guess this is a place

Newborns lashed to a dead oak tree

Settle deeper in the rain

Settle deeper in the rain

Hold me tight, flying through the air

Hold on strong, and we're almost there

Laugh so hard, the devil gets scared

I got a real good mind to beat your senseless

Best to count your blessing child

The sun's not too hot today

Like to get to church before

Oh, before this old jacket fades

Take us right to the shade

That's the end of Poppie Johnny Road

Old blind that cures your misery

Give her five dollars, boy

Oh, and a reason to believe

A reason to believe

Hold me tight, flying through the air

Coalyards calling, we're almost there

Laugh so hard and the devil's all scared

I got a real good mind to beat you senseless

Down Poppie Johnny Road, nobody hears your name

The life that I love, like stealin' a ride on a train

Oh, steal a ride on a train

At the end of Poppie Johnny Road

Old Blind that cures your misery

Just get five dollars there and a reason to believe

A reason to believe

Hold me tight, flying through the air

Coalyards calling, we're almost there

Laughed so hard and the devil gets scared

I got a real good mind, to beat you senseless

I got a real good mind

Senseless

I got a real good mind

Senseless

I got a real good mind

Senseless

I got a real good mind
