Little John lived on a mountainside Never thought much about taking on a bride Finally he upped and he married one day She didnt like the country so she done run away Poor little John, poor little John Your Mama used to love you but your Mamas gone What you gonna do, livin all alone Your Mama used to love you but your Mamas gone Little John say what a fool I be Hot tone woman make a monkey outa me Life gets lonesome on the mountainside Guess thats the reason little John sit and cried Poor little John, poor little John Your Mama used to love you but your Mamas gone What you gonna do, livin all alone Your Mama used to love you but your Mamas gone Little John dont know what he gonna do Lose one woman, dont wanna try for two Guess hell get along without no help Live all his life on the mountain by hisself
