Soul HitchHiker - His Name Is John

He's got kind of wild eyes
When he laughs he don't hide the fact he's deep down angry
He's from down near Attica
Where he lived was kinda rough cinder blocks for walls and iron windows
He's got a scar from here to there No one asks why or where
His eyes will murder you he finds you starin'

They call him crazy but his name is John
His name is John, his name is John

Hey John, what you done? Cut your woman 'cause she run
Made you a fool, made your soul dark and hot as black powder

They call him the devil but his name is John
His name is John, his name is John

He's got kind of wild eyes
And when he prays, the God he calls don't look like yours and mine
He don't know what makes him mean
He don't see much between fields of dirt and that big sun
His record's long from here to there
They'd kill him but he wouldn't care
Dyin's easy when you've lived every minute hard

They call him Godless but his name is John
His name is John, his name is John

Hey, John, what you done? Cut yourself on razor wire
Devil's hole stoked the fires of your soul - now they got you

They call him dead, but his name is John
His name is John, his name is John
