Well if I had listened What the Rosie said
I could have been at home When the Rosie said
Well, I wasn't listening
Got to running around
Which thing I know
I was jailed, I was bound
Well, I got in jail
With my mob pope down
Well, now I'm in the pen
And I can't get out
He's no John, but he's no John
Well, the John name
There's a parachute
Well, the funniest shoe
That was ever seen
Had a heel in front
And a heel behind
Well, it didn't know well
That the boy was one
He's no John, [G] but he's no John
He's [N] no John, but he's no John
Oh, long John
Well, it took three minutes
Let me catch my wind
And it took three minutes
I'm gone again

In the chapter 14
