Lyrics
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, chauffeur his limousine 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,
