Old Jack Lyrics – Smokey bastard
Singer: Smokey bastard
Title: Old Jack
Down my old local there’s always a man
With a squint in his eye and a working man’s tan
Just listen a while and you’ll be entertained
But don’t interrupt, 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 that 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
Should be living your live for yourself
‘Cause the very next day
They could take you away
And you won’t have no stories to tell
But seeing as you’re here
Won’t you buy us a beer
And I’ll tell you a favorite of mine
Go out 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 unicorn’s horn or the gold he brought back
Just keep your mouth shut if you’re doubting Old Jack
Cause his hands may be cracked and his eyes may be pale
He may not look long for this world
When that 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
Should be living your live for yourself
‘Cause the very next day
They could take you away
And you won’t have no stories to tell
But seeing as you’re here
Won’t you buy us a beer
And I’ll tell you a favorite of mine
Go out and live your life
Another time
I went to my local just the other day
They told me Old Jack had been taken away
The hospital bed found him cold like 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 ward
I was shattered and torn
I remembered the last words he said
He said away with you boy
Don’t go wasting your time
Should be living your life for yourself
‘Cause the very next day
They could take you away
And you won’t have no stories to tell
But seeing as you’re here
Won’t you buy us a beer
And I’ll tell you a favorite of mine
Go out and live your life
Another time
He said away with you boy
Don’t go wasting your time
Should be living your life for yourself
‘Cause the very next day
They could take you away
And you won’t have no stories to tell
But seeing as you’re here
Won’t you buy us a beer
And I’ll tell you a favorite of mine
Go out and live your life
Another time
