Lucky Jack (20-1) Songtext
von A Girl Called Eddy

Old man every now and then
I want to know why you left
Why it was so easy to forget
Old man from the look of it
You′re the lucky one
You learned to run
And every time we thought that it was over and done
Just like the sun, you'd come back again


Old man, everybody said
I was the apple of your roving eye
Why′d you always have to make her cry
Old man, she gave the world to you
You turned her heart black and blue
She even turned her pretty hair
From brunette to blonde
No magic wand could ever make you stay

Why was there always something better out there
Cheap perfume and women named Nancy
Or whatever tickled your fancy

Old man every now and then
I want to know why you left
Why it was so easy to let go
Old man tears and cigarettes and all your pony bets
They're all off now
And every time we thought that it was over and done
Just like the sun, you'd come back again
