Long Gone - Eartha Kitt/Shorty Rogers
Did you ever hear the story
Of Long John Dean
A bold bank robber from Bowlin' Green
Was sent to the jail house yesterday
But late last night he made his getaway
He's long gone from Kentucky
Long gone ain't he lucky
Long gone and what I mean
He's long gone John
From Bowlin' Green
Long John stood on the railroad tie
Waitin' for freight train to come by
Freight train came just puffin' and flyin'
You oughta see long John
Grabbin' that blind
He's long gone from Kentucky
Long gone ain't he lucky
Long gone and what I mean
He's long gone John
From Bowlin' Green
Now they caught him in 'Frisco
And seal his fate
At San Quentin they jailed him
One evening late
Out on the ocean John did escape
'Cause the guards forgot
To close the Golden Gate
He's long gone from Kentucky
Long gone ain't he lucky
Long gone and what I mean
He's long gone John
From Bowlin' Green
Now they offered a reward
To bring him back
Even put bloodhounds on his track
Those doggone bloodhounds lost his scent
Now nobody knows where long John went
He's long gone from Kentucky
He's long gone ain't he lucky
Long gone and what I mean
He's long gone John
From Bowlin' Green
A gang of men tried to capture Dean
So they chased him with a submarine
Dean jumped overboard
Grabbed the submarine
And made that gang
Catch a flyin' machine
He was long gone
From San Quentin
Long gone
Oh it still has brighten
Long gone I'm telling you
So shot your mum and shot mine too
Aha
Long gone from Kentucky
Long gone oh man he's lucky
Long gone red back balck
Long gone oh that man's flying
Long gone they tell me stilly is Britain
Long gone this cat's gone
Long gone I hope you find a pad
'Cause this kind of tarff starff
And out in the opening beds
Long gone
