Dolly Parton - John Daniel Lyrics

[Verse 1]
John Daniel came to town one summer afternoon
Wearing dirty work clothes so everyone presumed
He was just another logger from the logging camp nearby
And he was, but there was something different in John Daniel's eyes

John Daniel was a young man, not more than twenty-four
And there was an air about him that one could not ignore
And in spite of callused hands & dirty clothes, his face was kind
And I wanted so to know what was in John Daniel's mind

[Chorus]
John Daniel, tell me where did you come from; tell me where is it you've been
John Daniel, tell me why are you different from all of these other men
John Daniel, there's something about you that I don't quite understand
John Daniel, do you hold the answer to a higher plan?

[Verse 2]
I rented him a room; he went upstairs like all the rest
It was Saturday and he'd be going in to town, I guessed
But he left in a robe and sandals, with a Bible in his hand;
And I thought to myself, John Daniel, I don't understand

Now I'd planned to meet some friends of mine when I got off at three
In the park we often gather to talk of love and peace
When I got there I found that a crowd had gathered around;
And there I saw John Daniel a sitting on the ground

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
So, "You want to be free," he said, "Well, this is how you can."
As he read from the Bible he held in his hand
We were searching for the truth not knowing where to look
Not knowing that the answers all were in John Daniel's book

John Daniel told us all how we could be free
John Daniel taught us all a better way for you and me
He came to us in our own way so we'd be sure to see
He had the light and essence of the man from Galilee

[Chorus]

[Verse 4]
John Daniel, John Daniel, John Daniel
John Daniel do you hold the answer to a higher plan?
John Daniel came to town one summer afternoon
Wearing dirty work clothes so everyone presumed
He was just another logger from the logging camp nearby
And he was, but there was something different in John Daniel's eyes
Ooh, John Daniel, tell me where did you come from
Tell me where is it you've been
John Daniel, tell me why are you different from all of these other men
John Daniel, there's something about you that I don't quite understand
John Daniel, do you hold the answer to a higher plan?
