My Son, John (LP版) - Tom Paxton[00:00:00]

My son John was a good boy and good to me [00:00:02]

When we had hard times well he stood by me [00:00:08]

We were in work and out of work and on the go [00:00:13]

If he had complaints I never heard of one [00:00:19]

He would pitch in and help me like a full grown man [00:00:24]

My son John John my son [00:00:30]

My son John went to college and he made his way [00:00:42]

Had to earn every penny but he paid his way [00:00:47]

He worked summers and holidays and through the year [00:00:53]

And it was no easy struggle that he won [00:00:59]

But he laughed at the ones who thought he had it hard [00:01:04]

My son John John my son [00:01:10]

My son John got his uniform and went away [00:01:21]

With a band playing marches he was sent away [00:01:27]

And he wrote me a letter when he had the time [00:01:32]

He was loosing his buddies one by one [00:01:38]

And I prayed and tried not to read between the lines [00:01:44]

My son John John my son [00:01:49]

My son John came home yesterday; he's here to stay [00:01:55]

Not a word to his father have I heard him say [00:02:01]

He seems glad to be home but I can't be sure [00:02:07]

When I ask him what he'd seen and done [00:02:12]

He went up to his bedroom and he closed the door [00:02:18]

My son John John my son [00:02:24]

He went up to his bedroom and he closed the door [00:02:29]

My son John John my son[00:02:35]
