Lyrics & Music By Pete Dowan (SOCAN)
john, JOHN
1st VERSE:
Pullin' into town for the very first time
'Bout two hundred miles of highway behind.
Step into the lounge of the nearest hotel.
One thing on my mind....
CHORUS:
WHERE DO I FIND THE john, JOHN ?
BEEN A LITTLE WHILE AND I BEEN HOLDIN' ON.
WHERE DO I FIND THE john, JOHN ?
TELL ME MAN, WHERE'S THE CAN.
ALREADY BEEN TOO LONG..WHOA!
WHERE DO I FIND THE john ?
(c-c-come on John, got to find the john, John)
2nd VERSE:
Drinkin' up a storm at a party last night.
You know how it is when drinkin' that lite.
Actin' nonchalant as I'm crossin' my legs,
Try to be polite... (please ?)
CHORUS:
WHERE DO I FIND THE john, JOHN ?
BEEN A LITTLE WHILE AND I BEEN HOLDIN' ON.
WHERE DO I FIND THE john, JOHN ?
TELL ME MAN, WHERE'S THE CAN.
ALREADY BEEN TOO LONG..WHOA!
WHERE DO I FIND THE john ?
(don't you know Joe ? 'cos I got to GO Joe!)
BASS SOLO:
3rd VERSE:
Sittin' on the bus for an awful long time
Every single bump puts a strain on my.... mind.
Take a look around with the station in view,
(I) Don't see any signs.... (oh no !!)
CHORUS: (TWICE, THEN ENDING)
WHERE DO I FIND THE john, JOHN ?
BEEN A LITTLE WHILE AND I BEEN HOLDIN' ON.
WHERE DO I FIND THE john, JOHN ?
TELL ME MAN, WHERE'S THE CAN.
ALREADY BEEN TOO LONG..WHOA!
WHERE DO I FIND THE john ?
ENDING:
(c-c-come on John, got to find the john, John)
(why don't you know Joe ? 'cos I got to GO Joe!)
JOHN, JOHN..GOT TO FIND THE john, JOHN. REPEATED
(Note: There could be a BIG sigh after the song stops)
