(The legend of High John, The Conqueror)
ย
Hey, John the conqueror
Growin' on the sunny side
I've heard about you
From people of a healing kind
People of a healing kind
They said your name I need to call
If I'm sick or down in trouble
Or need anything at all
ย
So, I went on a mighty
Highway byway ride
And dancing on the roadside
Guess who did I find?
And I said, "Hey man, what's you name?"
And he said, "Think about it
Think about it
'Cause truth is always the same"
Truth is always the same
Living and loving
Truth is always the same
Living and loving (loving)
The rest is insane
Living and loving (loving)
The rest is insane
ย
Yet, John The Conqueror
Was nowhere to be found
So I asked about him
People of the mystic kind
People of the mystic kind
They said, "He's no secret at all
If you broke or down and out
Or need anything at all
Anything at all"
So I traveled world around me
I went back inside
And dancing on my ribs, oh, yeah
Guess who did I find?
I said, "Hey man, what's your name?"
And he said, "Think about it, think about it
'Cause truth is always the same
Cure is always the same"
Living and loving
Truth is always the same
Living and loving (loving)
The rest is insane
Living and loving (loving)
The rest is insane
ย
Gather around, people
Gather around here
Gather around, people, here
Living and loving
Truth is always the same
Living and loving (loving)
The rest is insane
America's people
Truth is always the same
Rational people (loving)
Truth is always the same
Asian people (loving)
Truth is always the same
African people (loving)
The rest is insane
