He said, Johnny come and go with me, poor boy,
Johnny come and go with me
C G John Hardy had a mother and a father too C G Tryin to go his bail C G There was no bail out for the mother and man
They put ole John Hardy back in jail, poor boy,
Throw John Hardy back in jail
C G John Hardy He had a pretty little wife C G The dress that she wore was blue C G She ran through the jailhouse, she fell down on her knees
She said Johnny I been true to you, yes I have,

C G John Hardy he stood inside his cell C G The tears are rollin from his eyes C G I've been the death of many an honest man
Now I am going to die alone, now I am goin to die
C G Well I've been to the east, and I've been to the west C G I've been this whole wide world round C G I've been to the north, and I've been way down south
