Mad John's Escape Lyrics - Donovan Leitch

Mad John came down from Birmingham very hastily 

And from Borstal he had ran 

He made it down to Torquay 

Good boy Mad John 

Mad John holed up in an allotment shed by a railroad siding 

In came the man for the watering can 

He didn't see John hiding 

Good boy Mad John 

Mad, mad, Mad John 

[Unverified] 

Mad John met Jill in a transport cafe 

By the jukebox loud 

And over double eggs chips and beans 

They made a solemn vow and Jill paid the bill
