Old Jack

Down my old local there's always a man
With a squint in his eye and a working mans tan
Just listen a while and you'll be entertained
But don't interupt, you may ne'er walk again
'Cause his hands may be cracked and his eyes may be pale
He may not look long for this world
When the world's on your back
just sit down with Old Jack
And he'll tell you tall tales of old

//He'll say away with you boy
don't go wasting your time
y' should be living your live for yourself
'cause the very next day
they could take you away
and you wont have no stories to tell.
But seein' as you're here
wont you buy us a beer
and I'll tell you a favorite of mine
'Go wild and live your life
another time'//

He'll regale you with tales through the smoke of his pipe
then he'll show you some proof of his well-traveled life
The unicorns horn or the gold he brought back
just keep your mouth shut when you're down with Old Jack
'Cause his hands may be cracked and his eyes may be pale
He may not look long for this world
When the world's on your back
just sit down with Old Jack
And he'll tell you tall tales of old

//He'll say away with you boy
don't go wasting your time

y' should be living your live for yourself
'cause the very next day
they could take you away
and you wont have no stories to tell.
But seein' as you're here
wont you buy us a beer
and I'll tell you a favorite of mine
'Go wild and live your life

I went down to my local just the other day
they told me Old Jack had been taken away
The hospital bed found him cold in the night
and snatched him away while he clung to his pipe
and his skin was so pale and his eyes wired shut
his story had come to an end
As I walked out the door
I was shattered and torn
I reme, bered the last words he said

//He said away with you boy
don't go wasting your time
y' should be living your live for yourself
'cause the very next day
they could take you away
and you wont have no stories to tell.
But seein' as you're here
wont you buy us a beer
and I'll tell you a favorite of mine
'Go wild and live your life
another time'//
