Lyrics
Johnson boys, raised in the ashes,
Never knew how to court a maid,
Turn their backs and hide their faces,
Sight of a pretty girl makes them afraid. (3)

Johnson boys went a-courtin’,
The Coon Creek girls so pretty and sweet,
They couldn’t make no conversation,
They didn’t know where to put their feet. (3)

The Johnson boys, they went a-huntin’,
Took two dogs and went astray,
Tore their clothes and scratched their faces,
They didn’t get home till the break of day. (3)

The Johnson boys went to the city,
Ridin’ in a Chevrolet,
They came home broke and a-walkin’,
They had no money for to pay their way. (3)
Shame, o shame on the Johnson boys.
