Spider John
Who's that traveling? (Spider John)
Web to web and gone (Spider John)
If you can hear him sing (Spider John)
You better sing along (Spider John)
With an old guitar cross his abdomen
He's here one day and then gone again
With eight worn shoes on his feet
He rides the wind right down the street
Long and lanky and so laid back
He plays for a fly and then gone out the back
Who's that traveling? (Spider John)
Web to web and gone (Spider John)
If you can hear him sing (Spider John)
You better sing along (Spider John)
He's an old black dog and a leather winged bat
And he'll sing for his supper or a tip in the hat
You can put him in the corner of a party on the ground
It's a guitar pickin' and a stompin' sound
Long and lanky and so laid back
He plays for a fly and then gone out the back
Who's that traveling? (Spider John)
Web to web and gone (Spider John)
If you can hear him sing (Spider John)
You better sing along (Spider John)
When he jumps (we jump)
We jump around from way up high to way on down
When he spins (we spin)
In a big wide circle throw in a dime and you throw in a nickel
When he moves (we move)
Fast and funny herky jerky like a robot bunny
When he runs (we run)
Here and there cross the floor and under a chair I said
Who's that traveling? (Spider John)
Web to web and gone (Spider John)
If you can hear him sing (Spider John)
You better sing along
Spider John
Spider John
Spider John
Spider John
You better sing along
'Til he's gone
