Jack’s Mannequin - Ten Days Gone lyrics
[Jack’s Mannequin - Ten Days Gone lyrics]
The dog is in the yard
And I just got back from traveling hard
I've been ten days gone
I've been ten days gone 'cross the sea
With my girl in a house in the trees
I love her she knows
But sometimes my love goes 'Cross the sea
Paulette is in the garden
It's the first day of the fall
Lately I'm not getting no see at all
She said stay till you're strong
Soon you'll be gone 'Cross the sea
With your girl in a house in the trees
I love her she knows
But sometimes my love goes 'Cross the sea
The sea the sea
The sea i went to meet the boatman
He was smoking on his pipe
He said son you look ready to travel tonight
I think he's right
Soon I'll be gone 'cross the sea
With my girl in a house in the trees
I love her she knows
But sometimes my love goes 'Cross the sea
Because she knows in the oceans I'm free
And it makes her so sad
But she never gets mad when I leave
