Get Away John The Kingston Trio

[Intro]
Get away, get away
Get away, get away
Poor John

[Verse 1]
John Hardy was a fightin' man
Carried a razor ev'ry day
He killed a man in Mobile town
You ought to see my Johnny get away
Ought to see my Johnny get away

[Chorus]
Get away, get away, get away
Poor John

[Verse 2]
John Hardy was standin' at the bar
So drunk he could not see
Along came a man with a warrant in his hand
Cryin', "Johnny boy, why don't you come with me?
Johnny boy, why don't you come with me?"

[Verse 3]
John Hardy had a pretty little gal
Kept her dressed in blue
He saw her in the hangin' crowd
Cryin', "Johnny boy, I'll be true to you
Johnny boy, I'll be true to you
