Radio John (Sam Bush)’
[Verse]
D
Started out working in the summertime
A D
docks of the Mississippi, Valley barge Line
D
Stoking towboats on those long hot days
A D
Getting half days off, sometimes with pay
D
Became a steamboat captain
D
Wrote the songs to Mark Twang
A D
Rolling down the river to New Orleans
[Chorus]
G D
Oh, I can hear something coming up around the bend
G A
It's the Julia Belle Swain, boys, gleaming and steaming on in
D
And it's Radio John standing at the helm
A D
With a wave and a smile and some yarn to tell
[Verse]
D
He loved life on the river and the fiddle tunes
A D
Of blind Ed Haley and Benny Martin too
D
He always played them songs with a Vamp in the Middle
A D
With a hustle and a shuffle and a skittle wah diddle
D
He wrote songs every day, lord, he'd scratch and scribble
A D
So the tunes that he wrote, he could play on his fiddle
[Chorus]
G. D
Well, I went up the river come away last Sunday night
G A
With my fiddle and my banjer and my baby there to hold me tight
D
A banjo man, he rolled while he sang
A D
With rhythm like a piston on a railroad train
[Verse]
D
Gotta see Radio John with his two-toned shoes
A D
A-slipping and a-sliding while he danced for you
D
He knew every crooked turn, up 'n' down the Mississippi
A D
He was a Huckleberry Finn, an airwaves hippie
D
Radio John, a steamboat troubadour
A D
A Mississippi Sawyer, like we'd never seen before
[Chorus]
G D
He spun those tunes in St. Louie and Illinois, they say
G A
He played Bill, Earl and Lester and some boys named Bray
D
You could hear his voice every night 'til dawn
A. D
So cut your television off and turn your radio on
D
It's Radio John
[Verse]
D
He danced, and he played in the bars and the halls
A D
While he was tapping his shoes, we was having a ball
D
Yeah, Radio John had us all sing along
A D
Just a-clapping and a-stomping to every one of his songs
[Outro]
G D
He could make us happy and sometimes make us cry
G A
And looking back now, I wish we never had to say goodbye
D
It was 6-9-0 KSTL
A D
Where he played those songs we all knew so well
D
