Lyrics

Old John Penny fell down a well,

The well carried on

All the way to hell.


Through the blackness he did fly

At a thousand miles an hour

Yet no one heard his cry

As he met his final hour.


John Penny, John Penny,

He was on his way to hell.

There was nothing that could save him

Any more.

Not the sound of a church bell,

Not a cross upon his chest,

A hair shirt beneath his vest,

Not a prayer to the Lord,

Not a flaming holy sword,

Not a bible, not the word.

Not one thing in this world.

John Penny was

On his way to hell.


Old John Penny the devil did meet,

The devil said 'Johnny,

Wash my feet'.


Old John Penny turned up his nose,

Took out a knife,

Cut off Nick's toes.


John Penny, John Penny,

He was on his way to hell.

There was nothing that could save him

Not the sound of a church bell,

Not a cross upon his chest,

A hair shirt beneath his vest,

Not a prayer to the Lord,

Not a flaming holy sword,

Not a bible, not the word.

Not one thing in this world.

John Penny was

On his way to hell.


Old John Penny was thrown out the well,

Now the devil limps

His way around hell.


Now Johnny's got

A story to tell

Of the day he met his maker in hell


Of how he left him shaken and stirred

And how he gave

Old Nick the bird.


John Penny, John Penny,

He was on his way to hell.

There was nothing that could save him

Not the sound of a church bell,

Not a cross upon his chest,

A hair shirt beneath his vest,

Not a prayer to the Lord,

Not a flaming holy sword,

Not a bible, not the word.

Not one thing in this world.

John Penny was

On his way to hell.


But he was saved by his quick thinking

When he chopped the Devil's pinkie,

Now the Devil limps his way around hell.


John Penny, John Penny,

He was on his way to hell.

There was nothing that could save him

Not the sound of a church bell,

Not a cross upon his chest,

A hair shirt beneath his vest,

Not a prayer to the Lord,

Not a flaming holy sword,

Not a bible, not the word.

Not one thing in this world.

John Penny was

On his way to hell.
