My Brother Jack
My brother Jack is a funny young lad
Always plays the joker and is never sad
Gets into scrapes and he's only aged eight
As a brother and friend Jack is simply great
My brother Jack is really growing up fast
Those eight years he was never seemed to last
Jack is now eighteen and school is done
No longer the joker more serious than fun
My brother Jack still visits me when he can
Very difficult for him now for he is a family man
At twenty eight he has two kiddies and a wife
Works so hard as he tries to get through life
My brother Jack died suddenly one day
Thirty eight years is no age to be taken away
Thirty years ago we didn't have a worry or care
Taken so soon Jack life certainly ain't fair
