Pop-Pop John
In a bar at the Jersey Shore
Was drinking my share and a little more
When I saw a pretty young girl walk in the door
Long story short I wouldn't survive
Her boyfriend was jealous and six foot-five
So my friend had to start talking his own fist jive
When you're in trouble and need some help call Pop-Pop John
He looks like a general in the Civil War it's Pop-Pop John
His I.Q. is one eighty-two yea it's Pop-Pop John
He caught a whale on a four pound test
When you're messing with him you're messing with the best
Nobody has more medals on their chest than Pop-Pop John
He made friends with the jealous guy
The one who's girl was giving me the eye
Said he needed an engagement ring to buy
He was running low on cash
So Pop found fourteen carrots in the trash
Only had to cover the ointment for his rash
When you're in trouble and need some help call Pop-Pop John
He looks like a general in the Civil War it's Pop-Pop John
His I.Q. is one eighty-two yea it's Pop-Pop John
He caught a whale on a four pound test
When you're messing with him you're messing with the best
Nobody has more medals on their chest than Pop-Pop John
Pop worked hard all his life
He has a second job called his wife
She's real little but always carries a knife
So when they got in another fight
Pop couldn't sleep he woke up in fright
Had to stay over until things were all right
When you're in trouble and need some help call Pop-Pop John
He looks like a general in the Civil War it's Pop-Pop John
His I.Q. is one eighty-two yea it's Pop-Pop John
He caught a whale on a four pound test
When you're messing with him you're messing with the best
Nobody has more medals on their chest than Pop-Pop John
