Jonah’s Here to Stay Lyrics by Brownsville Station

A Night on the Town

0

Old Man Jonah's left, he's on his way
In his tore-down pocket, a gypsy lay
Come on and tell me, gypsy, why are you so cruel?
Jonah just keeps movin', he's no fool
So he's-a bought-a Jonah's time-a, there's no doubt [?]
Jonah's here to stay, Jonah's here to stay
Jonah's here to stay, can't find my way, yeah-yeah-yeah
Old Man Jonah's left, he's on his way
Time will call him back another day
Tomorrow, we'll be older, but not wise
Jonah just keeps movin' watchful eyes
So he's-a bought-a Jonah's time-a, there's no doubt [?]
Jonah's here to stay, Jonah's here to stay
Jonah's here to stay, can't find my way, yeah-yeah-yeah
Jonah, yeah-heh-heh
Old Man Jonah's left, he's on his way
Time will call him back another day
Yeah, tomorrow, we'll be older, but not wise, no no no no
Jonah just keeps movin' watchful eyes
Yeah, well he's-a bought-a Jonah's time-a, there's no doubt [?]
Jonah's here to stay, Jonah's here to stay
He's here to stay, Jonah's here to stay
