Long Gone (From The Bowlin' Green) (Rehearsal Sequence)

Pops, did you hear the story of long John Dean?



Not yet drummer



A bold bank robber from Bowlin' Green



Was sent to the jail house yesterday



But late last night he made his getaway



He was long gone from Kentucky



Long gone, ain't he lucky?



Long gone, what I mean



A long gone John from Bowlin' Green



Long John stood on the railroad tie



Waitin' for freight train to come by



Freight train came by puffin' and flyin'



Oughta seen long John grabbin' that blind



He was long gone from Kentucky



Long gone, ain't he lucky?



Long gone, what I mean



Long gone John from Bowlin' Green



They caught him in Frisco to seal his fate



At San Quentin they jailed him one evening late



But out on the ocean, John did escape



'Cause the guards forgot to close the Golden Gate



He was long gone from Kentucky



Long gone, ain't he lucky?



Long gone, what I mean



A long gone John from Bowlin' Green



While they offered a reward to bring him back



Even put bloodhounds on his track



Those doggone bloodhounds lost his scent



Now nobody knows where John went



He was long gone from Kentucky



Long gone, ain't he lucky?



Long gone, what I mean



A long gone John from Bowlin' Green



A gang of men tried to capture Dean



So they chased him with a submarine



Dean jumped overboard and grabbed the submarine



And made that gang catch a flyin' machine



He's long gone from Kentucky



A long gone, that boy's lucky?



A long gone, what I mean



A long gone John from Bowlin' Green



He's long gone, I said from Kentucky



Long gone, hmm that boy's lucky



Long gone, yeah he's got nothing in the head



Long gone, long gone
