Volume Five
Song For Jack
[Verse 1]
To the bottle of the glass and back
Is every friend I've ever had
And every love that I have known
And every place that I've called home
How I love to go back, my best friend Jack

[Verse 2]
To the bottom of the glass again
Is every place that I have been
And every picture in my mind
Reminds me of a better time
Reminds me of when you were mine

[Chorus]
A place where I can rest is hard to find
But you're good and warm and sweet to me
And easy on my mind
Yet you're so unkind

[Verse 3]
If I ever had an enemy
It's standin' right in front of me
And lookin' back with amber eyes
I taste its warm and sweet disguise
And swallow all its bitter lies
[Verse 4]
To the beautiful and sweet and tall
I raise my glass up to you all
A lovin' wife and family
Never liked the company
Of my ol' best friend Jack and me

[Chorus]
A place where I can rest is hard to find
But you're good and warm and sweet to me
And easy on my mind
Yet you're so unkind

[Verse 5]
To the bottom of the glass, I'm back
The only friend I've ever had
The only love that I have known
The only place to call my home
The only place to feel at home
