Smiling Jack (4DRB)
07/20/12 - FtLd


Down on the river
Smiling Jack does say
That everything you’re leaving
Was never meant to stay

Down on the river
Smiling Jack does pray
That everything you’re taking
Was meant to go away

And it’s a long
It’s a long
Long parade

Down on the river
Smiling Jack stands in the rain
Waiting to take the ferry
Over to the other side again

Down on the river
Smiling Jack complains
The boatman never gives him
Just what for he’s paid

So it’s a long
Oh it’s a long
Long parade

And Smiling Jack does battle
With every dream you’ve made
Tearing down illusions
Shoring up all your mistakes

Cause Smiling Jack’s a lover
Who really loves to hate
Everything you think that
Makes a god damn bit of sense

Cause it’s a long
Such a long
Long parade

And Smiling Jack’s the devil
And Smiling Jack’s a saint
So pray you to who you want to
But they can never take Smiling Jack’s place

Cause Smiling Jack’s the only
One who knows the way
So get you on the river
And get you in his grace

For it’s a long
Oh such a long
Long parade

Yeah it’s a long
It’s a long
Long parade
