The Ol Barefoot Tom - John John Dory Lyrics




Where have ye gone John John Dory
Tell a tale of where you've been
One fine day you'll come home again
To reconcile with your kin

Ere too long you'll be off anew
Seems there's not ye can abide
Hoist the sails to gather up the breeze
Then wash the hull with ebb tide

Where have ye gone John John Dory
Tell a tale of where you've been
Then one fine day you'll find yourself at home
To reconcile with your kin

Where have ye gone John John Dory
Tell a tale of where you've been
One fine day you'll come home again
And reconcile with your kin

Da na da na na

She met Johnny down at the quarry
Cuttin stones don't make a man free
She says to the man with a shotgun in her hand
She says Johnny you're coming with me

Johnny you spend too much time away
Is that really what you need
So he promises her his hand and a tidy piece of land
Just before he heads out to sea

Where have ye gone John John Dory
Tell a tale of where you've been
One fine day you'll come home again
To reconcile with your kin

Da na da na na

Where have ye gone John John Dory
Tell a tale of where you've been
One fine day you'll come home again
To reconcile with your kin
