Cold aeroplanes, slow boats, warm trains
|
remind me of Jack-A-Lynn.
|
Lush hotels and pretty girls
|
won't cheer the misty mood I'm in.
|
Silly, sad, I've never had to write this before,
|
oh, Jack-A-Lynn.
|
|
Funny how long nights allow
|
thoughts of Jack-A-Lynn.
|
When phantoms tread around my bed
|
to offer restless dreams they bring.
|
And it's just the time and place to find
|
a sad song to play for Jack-A-Lynn.
|
|
Magpies that shriek, old boots that leak
|
call me to Jack-A-Lynn.
|
Coal-black cats in policeman's hats
|
nosing where the mice have been.
|
And the long miaow's beginning now
|
and I'm far, far from home and Jack-A-Lynn.
|
Jack, Jack-A-Lynn
|
Jack, Jack-A-Lynn
|
Jack, Jack-A-Lynn
|
Jack, Jack-A-Lynn
|
