Just Like Jack Songtext
von Dayna Kurtz

He called me his sweet angel
And he called this sad town heaven
For a time I saw it through him
And I′ve appreciated that

And you, you talk just like him
Full of poetry and visions
You don't see things as they are
You′re making mansions out of shacks

And you'll be thinking deep thoughts
As you're sneaking out the back
Because you′re just like Jack
You′re just like Jack

Your lips will taste like whiskey
From the local sugarshack
You'll tell me that I′m pretty
Though you're probably just bored


And everyone will love you
′Cause you blew the dust off this town
You'll leave everybody wanting
Things they didn′t want before

And you would touch us all so deep
But you won't let us touch you back
Because you're just like Jack
You′re just like Jack

With all I got to keep me here
The baby and my mother
I′ll probably live forever
And have nothing new to say

But don't you ever cross a river
With that restless heart of yours
You got nothing to hold onto
You′ll just get swept away

But you'll be beaming like a floodlight
When the night is thick and black
Because you′re just like Jack
You're just like Jack
