Текст песни Brother John

Brother John

I remember the mornin`, I remember it well (Brother John is gone)
I remember the mornin? that my Brother John fell (Brother John is gone)

he was a mighty man with a heart of steel (Brother John is gone)
and he never would bow and he never would kneel (Brother John is gone)

Refrain: (2x)
I`m gonna talk about my brother John (oh ho) my brother John (oh ho )
Brother John is gone
I say my brother John (oh ho) my brother John (oh Lord )
Brother John is gone

Oh boy he died on the battlefield (Brother John is gone)
and the rest of his gang won`t bow they won`t kneel (Brother John is gone)

he sang?or set (a) mighty? goody? fire? on a mardi gras day(Brother John is gone)
and he never was afraid he better get out the way (Brother John is gone)

Refrain: (2x)

He was a mighty brave when he sang his song (Brother John is gone)
and the rest of his gang will still carry on (Brother John is gone)

He sang jacomo feena feena nay (Brother John is gone)
and he always sang like its mardi gras day (Brother John is gone)

Refrain: (2x)
