Johnny Come Lately (Live In Raleigh, NC / 1987) - Steve Earle (史蒂夫-厄尔)
I'm an american boys
And I've come a long way
I was born and bred in the usa
So listen up close
I've get something to say
Boys I'm buying this round
Well it took a little while
But were in this fight
And we ain't going home
Till we've done whats right
Were gonna drink camden
Town dry tonight
If I have to spend
My last pound
When I first got to london
It was pouring down rain
Meet a little girl
In the field canteen
Painted her name on the nose
Of my plane
Six more missions I'm gene
Well I asked if I could stay
And she said that I might
Then the warden came
Around yelling
Turn out the lights
Death raining out
Of the london night
We made love till dawn
But when johnny come lately
Comes marching home
With a chest full of medals
And a gl loan
Theyll be waiting at the station
Down in san antone
When johnny comes marching home
My p-47 is a pretty good ship
And she took a round coming
Cross the channel last trip
I was thinking bout my baby
And letting her rip
Always got me through so far
Well they can ship me all over
This great big world
But never find nothing
Like my north end girl
I'm taking her home when me one day sir
Soon as we win this war
But when johnny come lately comes
Marching home
With a chest full of medals
And a gl loan
They'll be waiting at the station
Down in san antone
When johnny comes marching home
Now my granddaddy sang me this song
Told me about londen
When the blitz was on
How he married grandma
And brought her back home
A hero throughout his land
Now I'm standing on a runway in san diego
A couple purple hearts
And I move a little slow
Theres nobody here maybe nobody know
About a place called vietnam
But when johnny come lately
Comes marching home
With a chest full of medals and a gl loan
They'll be waiting at the station
Down in san antone
When johnny comes marching home
