[00:00:00] Lost John - Sonny Terry (桑尼·特里)/Woody Guthrie

[00:00:12] Gonna tell you the story

[00:00:12] About old lost John

[00:00:18] Lost John was a boy that got loose

[00:00:20] From a chain gang down in Louisiana

[00:00:27] About sixteen bloodhound

[00:00:28] Took in after him

[00:00:31] Sheriffs deputies

[00:00:32] And everybody else in the county

[00:00:33] Chasin' him all across the swamp

[00:00:42] Lost John outrun

[00:00:43] The bloodhounds there

[00:00:44] All night long

[00:00:48] It was long towards mornin'

[00:00:49] He looked up to the tree there

[00:00:51] And seen

[00:00:51] The lights from a house

[00:00:54] He didn't know whether

[00:00:54] The people inside

[00:00:55] Was friends or were enemies

[00:00:58] So he wanted to go up to the house

[00:01:00] So and asked

[00:01:01] If he could stay there

[00:01:02] To get away from the bloodhounds

[00:01:03] He was afraid

[00:01:04] Did go up there

[00:01:05] That the people might set their dogs

[00:01:08] Barking at him

[00:01:10] Or shoot him down

[00:01:11] With a Winchester riffle

[00:01:13] This is the story about lost John
