Honest John lyrics

Chorus: Honest John, they call him Honest John

But I wouldn't trust him as far as I could

Throw an elephant over my shoulder

Throw a curve with a 10-ton boulder

Honest John, look out for Honest John

'Cause he's only honest by reputation

Though you'll find him in church on Sunday,

He'll steal pennies from a blind man Monday

Any old time that anything is gone,

Look for Honest John

There is one in every city

One in every neighborhood

He's doing well, but to hear him tell

He's always doing good

He belongs to all the lodges

Wears a politician's smile

Any time that you run into him

It's time to run a mile

Honest John: (spoken) I'm Honest John, they call me Honest John.

Chorus: But I wouldn't trust him as far as I'd trust

Robert Taylor with my new honey

Or a burglar with all my money

Honest John: (spoken) Honest John, my friend. They call me Honest John

Chorus: But don't ask him out to your house because he'll

Steal the bulbs right out of their sockets

He's so crooked, he'd pick his own pockets

Any old time that anything is gone...

(spoken verse)

Honest John: Well, musical sweet potatoes, hmm? Might bring a nice track and no one would suspect Honest John...

Police Officer: Calling all cars, calling all cars - four musical sweet potatoes missing and last seen but eyed by Honest John. Look for Honest John. That is all.

(continued sung verse)

Chorus: Any old time that anything is gone...

Look for Honest John!
