[00:00:00] Lost John - Blind Sonny Terry

[00:00:14] Gonna tell you the story

[00:00:14] About old lost John

[00:00:20] Lost John was a boy that got loose

[00:00:22] From a chain gang down in Louisiana

[00:00:29] About sixteen bloodhound took in after him

[00:00:32] Sheriffs deputies

[00:00:34] And everybody else in the county

[00:00:36] Chasin' him all across the swamp

[00:00:44] Lost John outrun the bloodhounds there

[00:00:45] All night long it was long towards mornin'

[00:00:51] He looked up to the tree there

[00:00:53] And seen the lights from a house

[00:00:55] He didn't know whether the people inside

[00:00:57] Was friends or were enemies

[00:01:00] So he wanted to go up to the house

[00:01:02] So and asked if he could stay there

[00:01:03] To get away from the bloodhounds

[00:01:05] He was afraid if he did go up there

[00:01:07] That the people might set their dogs

[00:01:10] Barking at him or shoot him down

[00:01:12] With a winchester rifle

[00:01:15] This is the story about lost John
