John D. Washington
Youa€™re a slippery son of a gun
Every papaa€™s daughter knows your name
They tell me that youa€™re bad
But you are my fathera€™s dad
John D. Washington wea€™re glad you came
How did it come to be?
By nineteen seventy-three
You bought the town and drove the world away
You found yourself a dime
And covered up your crime
John D. Washington youa€™re here to stay
Youa€™re here to stay
Youa€™ve had your fun
Ita€™s a brand new day
John D. Washington

John D. Washington
It seems youa€™ve come undone
Whisky Sam is knocking at your door
You better not let him in
He knows just where youa€™ve been
John D. Washington cana€™t hide no more
How did it come to be?
By nineteen twenty-three
Every papaa€™s daughter knew your name
They tell me that youa€™re mad
But you are my fathera€™s dad
John D. Washington wea€™re glad you came
Wea€™re glad you came
Youa€™ve had your fun
You played your game
