John Drew Lyrics – David Carradine

John Drew Lyrics by David Carradine

Everyone’s afraid of old John Drew
‘Cause you never know just exactly what he’ll do
Likely is not: he’ll walk up
To some passing

Stranger on the street and tell him the truth
And they’ll come and
Take us all away
Everyone’s afraid

‘Cause of all the trouble that he’s made
Everyone’s afraid of old John Drew
Everyone’s afraid
Everyone’s afraid

Everyone’s afraid
Everyone’s afraid
And if you knew him you probably would be too
Don’t think you wouldn’t

‘Cause everyone’s afraid of old John Drew
Well, he’ll blow out and crash your car
And then he’ll sit on your guitar
He’ll screw your daughter and beat your wife

Within an inch of your life
He’ll leave your house just as neat as a pin
Or it’ll be kind of reeking of Jane
But you’ll be feeling fine when the cops walk in

Whoa!
Everyone’s afraid
Everyone’s afraid
Everyone’s afraid

Everyone’s afraid
Everyone’s afraid of old John Drew
Well, he’ll love ya, and he’ll feel ya
And he’ll joke ya, and he’ll esteem ya

He’ll look ya straight in the eye
He’s not willing to compromise
Before he’s gone he’ll give ya
Some kind of horrible surprise

He’s a madman from the start
He’s all heart
He’s a creature from outer space
He’s a thoroughly hopeless case

He’s a prodigal son in return but
With a lot more style and grace
He’ll take you to where he’s gone
Which is kinda of all the way

But don’t you know?
You couldn’t stand the pace
Whoaeveryone’s afraid
Everyone’s afraid

Everyone’s afraid
Everyone’s afraid
Everyone’s afraid of old John Drew
Well, his kid called me up and said: “Listen Dave

Daddy’s gone to jail you just
Gotta boogie down and
Put up his bail”
But that’s not the thing that makes me wild, the thing that

Fries my head is that when I sign the papers it says that if he doesn’t show up they’re gonna come and
Take me instead
I must be crazy
I must be

Everyone’s afraid of old John Drew
‘Cause you never know just exactly what he’ll do
Likely is not: he’ll walk up
To some passing

Stranger on the street and tell him the truth
And they’ll come and
Take us all away
And they’ll come and

Take us awayeaoh!
Everyone’s afraid
Everyone’s afraid
Everyone’s afraid

Everyone’s afraid
Everyone’s afraid
Everyone’s afraid!
Everyone’s afraid!

Everyone’s afraid…
