[00:00:00] John The Gun (BBC Session - John Peel 6/8/74) - Fairport Convention

[00:00:09] ''My shadow follows me

[00:00:15] Wherever I should chance to go''

[00:00:20] John the gun did say

[00:00:27] ''If you should chance to meet me

[00:00:30] As I wander to and fro

[00:00:37] Sad would be your day

[00:00:44] My life is mine and the light did shine

[00:00:48] Till the guns they did go through me

[00:00:54] So now I shall never fall

[00:01:01] Ideals of peace are gold which fools have found

[00:01:05] Upon the plains of war

[00:01:11] I shall destroy them all ''

[00:01:18] Put away your guns of steel

[00:01:21] Death comes too soon for all

[00:01:25] Your master he may need you soon

[00:01:32] And you must heed his call

[00:02:41] ''I am the master of the games

[00:02:47] That you will hardly ever play

[00:02:52] So I will teach your sons

[00:02:59] And if they should die

[00:03:01] Before the evening of their span of days

[00:03:09] Why then they will die young ''

[00:03:16] Put away your guns of steel

[00:03:19] Death comes too soon for all

[00:03:23] Your master he may need you soon

[00:03:30] And you must heed his call

[00:03:41] ''Condemn me not

[00:03:43] For always will I play the game of war

[00:03:51] In moonshine or in sun

[00:03:58] And if any cross the path I choose to tread

[00:04:03] Their chances they are poor

[00:04:07] My name is john the gun ''

[00:04:13] Put away your guns of steel

[00:04:18] Death comes too soon for all

[00:04:21] Your master he may need you soon

[00:04:28] And you must heed his call
