Jack Candy

Jack candy was as old as my father

But still i took a likin' to him

He said: "you will be somebody's treasure,

But no one has discovered you yet."



Jack candy lived on sky valley road

And that's where he did business i guess

Some say he sold a suitcase of cocaine

But he never showed me any of that



This is a story that i've prayed to tell x2

About the day they drove him from this town

About the day i lost: jack candy



I was walkin' up to jack candy's trailer

When he shouted that i('d) better head home

The curtains closed as he went back inside

And i trembled 'cause he wasn't alone



This is a story that i've prayed to tell x2

About the day they drove him from this town

About the day i lost: jack candy



Some say they took him out to a clearin'

And made him crawl until he confessed

Some say they hung him up by his bootstraps

Some say they let him swing in the wind



I walked along (the) sky valley road

And out onto the great northern bridge

And for hours i stared into the cold

Sick and tired of denying i loved him



This is a story that i've prayed to tell x2

About the day they drove him from this town x2



I've lived a lie and i have lived it well

This is the story that i've prayed to tell

About a love and how i let him down

About the day i lost: jack candy
