My Friend Jack Songtext
von Boney M.

7" Version

My friend Jack eats sugar loaves
My friend Jack eats sugar loaves
Sugar Man hasn′t got a care
He's been travelling everywhere
Been on a voyage across an ocean
Heard the sweet sounds of wheels in motion
He′s seen hawks fly high to hail the setting sun

My friend Jack eats sugar loaves
My friend Jack eats sugar loaves
Sugar Man hasn't got a care
He's been travelling everywhere
He′s seen the people in the city
And the bright lights looks awful pretty
He′s followed dusty tracks into eternity
Eating sugarcane in Cuba
Try to grow it in Japan
On the West Coast, he's real famous
Kids they call him Sugar Man

Sugar Man hasn′t got a care
He's been travelling everywhere
Been on a voyage across an ocean
Heard the sweet sounds of wheels in motion
He′s seen hawks fly high to hail the setting sun
Eating sugarcane in Cuba
Try to grow it in Japan
On the West Coast, he's real famous
Kids they call him Sugar Man

Eating sugarcane in Cuba
Try to grow it in Japan
On the West Coast, he′s real famous
Kids they call him Sugar Man

Been on a voyage across an ocean
Heard the sweet sounds of wheels in motion
He′s seen the hawks fly high to hail the setting sun
