An American Jubilee song played by Alex Koford with Phil Lesh and the Terrapin Family Band in 2013.
Old John C Adams, he lives by the river
He don't got much but a shirt to his name
But that don't stop John C, he never stops breathing
He keeps his heart beating steady on
He ain't got no money, he ain't got a job
He don't need much, he grows corn by the cob
At night he goes fishing, alone in his boat
Smoking that home-grown to keep him afloat
Good old John C
Good old John C (good old John C)
Good old John C (good old John C)
Good old John C (good old John C)
Good old John C
Good old John C
Good old John C
