I've laid around and played around,
this old town too long
Summer's almost gone,
G7G7 C majorC G+G
yes, winter's comin' on
I've laid around and played around,
this old town too long,
C majorC D MajorD G+G
and I feel like I gotta travel on
G+G
Poppa writes to Johnny
But Johnny can't come home
Johnny can't come home
G7G7 C majorC G+G
No, Johnny can't come home
Poppa writes to Johnny
But Johnny can't come home
C majorC D MajorD G+G
Cause he's been on the chain gang too long
G+G
I've laid around and played around,
this old town too long
Summer's almost gone,
G7G7 C majorC G+G
yes, winter's comin' on
I've laid around and played around,
this old town too long,
C majorC D MajorD G+G
and I feel like I gotta travel on

High sheriff and police riding after me

Riding after me, yes, coming after me
High sheriff and police coming after me

And I feel like I gotta travel on

I've laid around and played around,
this old town too long
Summer's almost gone,

yes, winter's comin' on
I've laid around and played around,
this old town too long,
C majorC D MajorD G+G
and I feel like I gotta travel on

Want to see my honey

I've laid around and played around,
this old town too long,
