My Friend Jack [1976] Lyrics
My friend Jack eats sugarlumps
My friend Jack eats sugarlumps
Sugarman hasn't got a care
He's been travelling everywhere
Been on a voyage across an ocean
Heard the sweet sounds of wheels in motion
He's seen the hawk fly high to hail the setting sun
My friend Jack eats sugarlumps
My friend Jack eats sugarlumps
Sugarman hasn't got a care
He's been travelling everywhere
He's seeing things you can't imagine
Landscapes and sound revealing to him
More than a million shapes the eye could never see
Can't you see how happy he is? (My friend Jack)
Nothing seems to put him down (My friend Jack)
On the West Coast he's real famous (My friend Jack)
He's the weirdest cap in town
(My friend Jack, my friend Jack)
(My friend Jack, my friend Jack)
My friend Jack eats sugarlumps
My friend Jack eats sugarlumps
Sugarman hasn't got a care
He's been travelling everywhere
(My friend Jack) My friend Jack eats sugarlumps
(My friend Jack) My friend Jack eats sugarlumps
Sugarman hasn't got a care
He's been travelling everywhere
(My friend Jack) My friend Jack eats sugarlumps
(My friend Jack) My friend Jack eats sugarlumps
Sugarman hasn't got a care
My friend Jack eats sugarlumps
Sugarman hasn't got a care
He's been travelling everywhere
Heard the sweet sounds of wheels in motion
He's seen the hawk fly high to hail the setting sun
My friend Jack eats sugarlumps
Sugarman hasn't got a care
He's been travelling everywhere
Landscapes and sound revealing to him
More than a million shapes the eye could never see
Nothing seems to put him down (My friend Jack)
On the West Coast he's real famous (My friend Jack)
He's the weirdest cap in town
(My friend Jack, my friend Jack)
My friend Jack eats sugarlumps
Sugarman hasn't got a care
He's been travelling everywhere
(My friend Jack) My friend Jack eats sugarlumps
Sugarman hasn't got a care
He's been travelling everywhere
(My friend Jack) My friend Jack eats sugarlumps
Sugarman hasn't got a care
