Poppa Jack
In our close circle of friends and family
I've been known as old Poppa Jack
Really like it, I can feel all the love
What I give comes bouncing right back
Always been known to love the whole world
Enemies? Not a single darn soul
Some people I like a bit more than others
They're in the minority on the whole
There's nobody I'd really classify as someone
I wouldn't spend time with, by crikey
Or give pretty ladies a sweet tender hug
That person's never entered my psyche
So here's this old guy baring his soul
For the world to see and to know
My inner workings are still working fine
The secret? Just let it all flow
Here's old Poppa Jack signing off for now
With a dirty big smackeroonie
For all my multitude of friends and family
Whose love is so precious to me
