Widespread Panic - Jack lyrics
[Widespread Panic - Jack lyrics]
Jack was really a jester
Who held his one good eye on the queen
And there sat the king beside her
He's pointing his sword up and
Down with every scene
And the wizard's in the corner
Catching peanuts between his teeth
And the dogs lying in the
Shadow in the archway
There's one good dog sleeping filled
With good ol' dog dreams
He slipped next to the wizard
Whispered something deep
To the bottom of his ear a little joke
The one about the farmer's daughter
How she was stomping on grapes
Coming up with blue feet and beer
And he slipped behind the queen
Where the fools go the rich don't mind
Lately the king's
(k) nights have turned a little rusty
And his halo - I mean his crown -
Has gone and slipped down around his eyes
The wizard's in the corner
Pulling lizards between his knees
And the dog he been long gone
Gone to pitch for the winning team
Fifty-two, I mean fifty-four bicycles
On the wall ready to ride
Ready to ride until the last of them falls
Jack's been cooking in the kitchen
Whompin' up some biscuit's for us all
For us all, For us all
Ready to ride, ready to ride, ride
Who held his one good eye on the queen
And there sat the king beside her
He's pointing his sword up and
Down with every scene
And the wizard's in the corner
Catching peanuts between his teeth
And the dogs lying in the
Shadow in the archway
There's one good dog sleeping filled
With good ol' dog dreams
He slipped next to the wizard
Whispered something deep
To the bottom of his ear a little joke
The one about the farmer's daughter
How she was stomping on grapes
Coming up with blue feet and beer
And he slipped behind the queen
Where the fools go the rich don't mind
Lately the king's
(k) nights have turned a little rusty
And his halo - I mean his crown -
Has gone and slipped down around his eyes
The wizard's in the corner
Pulling lizards between his knees
And the dog he been long gone
Gone to pitch for the winning team
Fifty-two, I mean fifty-four bicycles
On the wall ready to ride
Ready to ride until the last of them falls
Jack's been cooking in the kitchen
Whompin' up some biscuit's for us all
For us all, For us all
Ready to ride, ready to ride, ride
