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
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
