Текст песни Johnny Be Gay If You Can Be - Terry Callier
There
was
an
old
man
lived
over
the
hill.
Oh,
Johnny,
be
gay.
There
was
an
old
man
lived
over
the
hill.
If
he
ain′t
moved
away,
he's
a-livin′
there
still.
Johnny,
be
gay
if
you
can
be.
The
devil
come
up
to
the
old
man
one
day.
Oh,
Johnny,
be
gay.
The
devil
come
up
to
the
old
man
one
day,
And
he
says,
"Your
old
lady
I'm
takin'
away."
Johnny,
be
gay
if
you
can
be.
"Well,
take
her,
please
take
her
with
all
o′
my
heart.
Oh,
yeah,
you
can
have
her
with
all
o′
my
heart.
I
hope
to
my
soul
you
two
never
part."
The
devil
he
packed
her
up
on
his
back.
The
devil
he
packed
her
up
on
his
back.
Straight
down
the
hill
he
went
clickety-clack.
Well,
ten
little
devils
said,
"Welcome
to
hell."
Yeah,
ten
little
devils
said,
"Welcome
to
hell.
Pa,
turn
up
the
fire;
we'll
sizzle
her
well."
She
caught
four
little
devils
out
playin′
tricks.
She
caught
four
little
devils
out
playin'
tricks.
She
bound
′em
up
tightly
an'
beat
′em
with
sticks.
Well
six
scared
little
devils
they
run
down
the
hall.
Six
little
devils
they
run
down
the
hall,
Cryin',
"Take
her
back,
daddy;
she's
killin′
us
all."
Oh,
the
devil
he
flung
her
up
on
his
back.
The
devil
he
flung
her
up
on
his
back.
Straight
out
o′
hell
he
come
clickety-clack.
She
found
her
ol'
man
layin′
late
in
his
bed.
She
found
her
ol'
man
layin′
late
in
his
bed,
An'
she
picked
up
a
butterknife,
went
to
his
head.
The
old
woman
went
whistlin′
over
the
hill.
Oh,
Johnny,
be
gay.
The
old
woman
went
whistlin'
over
the
hill.
"Devil
won't
have
me;
I
wonder
who
will?"
Johnny,
be
gay
if
you
can
be.
Johnny,
be
gay
if
you
can
be.
Johnny,
be
gay
if
you
can
be.
