From the recording American Dream
Lyrics
JOHNSON CITY
I met a man, true bandit of six strings
He lives in Johnson City, Johnson City Tennessee
All the bad luck couldn’t take away his sense of humor
Even though he’d like to play again… Bandit of six strings
And I would like to talk to him again
Maybe just a few more times
I’m going away
Fly over town
I’m gone away
Fly over town
Not too far from the train track
3 – 2 – 5 oh West Pine Road
I’ve seen too many broken homes and shacks
Then I met A.J. … Fire blended.
South the land look at the streets
They’re empty and Fall slowly sweeps
Everything so very different
And yet, so much home
I’m going away
Fly over town
I’m gone away
Fly over town
