lyrics

Ball That Jack
Words and Music by Lamb & Watson

Like a bird on the wind, where I land is where I live
It's the way I am, it's something, you could never forgive
I know I've done you wrong, you looked for me but I was long gone
Out there on the road again, for way too long

Carry my life around on my back
Got to keep on movin', got to ball that jack
When I hit the road, don't leave no tracks
Like the evening twilight, as it fades to black

It's time to be movin on, forget and move along
It’s dust on the road, gone, without a trace
Whiskey women and bars, lonely nights underneath the stars
They don't help me at all when I cry and try to forget your face

Carry my life around on my back
Got to keep on movin', got to ball that jack
When I hit the road, don't leave no tracks
Like the evening twilight, as it fades to black

If I get back to this town, woman I'll be around
I'll show you that my love for you baby, is ever so… real
But it's always the same, the road girl, it’s callin out my name
You know the cards are always marked, it’s just the way that I deal

Carry my life around on my back
Got to keep on movin', got to ball that jack
When I hit the road, don't leave no tracks
Like the evening twilight, as it fades to black
Like a freight train barrelin' off the track
The deck I carry is always stacked
I get the feelin', won’t be coming back
Got to move on baby, got to ball that jack

Got to ball that jack….

Got to ball that jack….

Got to ball that jack….
