the sharecroppers - hangashore lyrics

well, johnny o’rork he lived all alone
he didn’t have a wife, he was never at home
sure johnny was only skin and bones
ol’ johnny from down in the harbor

well johnny slept in a big feather bed
big fluffy pillow under his head
and when he awoke every morning he said
bejumpins, i’ve slept in again

woah, johnny get up in the morning on time
you’re never ahead and you’re always behind
there’s plenty of fish whеn the weather is finе
johnny get up in the morning
johnny get up in the morning on time
you’re never ahead and you’re always behind
there’s plenty of fish when the weather is fine
johnny get up in the morning

well, johnny would walk to the wharf at nine
and he’d look to the waters and pray for a sign
but all of the others had left him behind
’cause johnny had slept in again

he’d walk to the store and he’d take up his post
and he’d talk of the weather and the boys down the coast
but later that day to the queen he would toast
ol’ johnny from down in the harbor
woah, johnny get up in the morning on time
you’re never ahead and you’re always behind
there’s plenty of fish when the weather is fine
johnny get up in the morning
johnny get up in the morning on time
you’re never ahead and you’re always behind
there’s plenty of fish when the weather is fine
johnny get up in the morning

well, johnny grew tired of the single life
so he quickly went out and he got him a wife
now he sleeps all day and he plays all night
ol’ johnny from down in the harbor

but his darling wife had a mind of her own
she pointed her fingers, said “listen me son”
sure it’s nearly a month and the honeymoon’s gone
and you better get out on the water

she said
woah, johnny get up in the morning on time
you’re never ahead and you’re always behind
there’s plenty of fish when the weather is fine
johnny get up in the morning
johnny get up in the morning on time
you’re never ahead and you’re always behind
there’s plenty of fish when the weather is fine
johnny get up in the morning
well, johnny o’rork coudn’t take anymore
he was tired of being a hangashore
he said “my darling wife, you’ll never be poor”
as long as you’re married to johnny

it’s been thirteen years and thirteen kids
johnny no longers stays in the bed
sure he’s out on the water each morning instead
’cause johnny gets up in the morning

woah, johnny gets up in the morning on time
he’s always ahead and he’s never behind
he catches his fish when the weather is fine
johnny gets up in the morning
johnny gets up in the morning on time
he’s always ahead and he’s never behind
he catches his fish when the weather is fine
johnny gets up in the morning
johnny gets up in the morning on time
he’s always ahead and he’s never behind
he catches his fish when the weather is fine
johnny gets up in the morning
