Shot of Jack

shot of Jack

long day lots of bull
from the cabinet a bottle you pull
oh the company of Jack
a fellow acquaintance easy to please
a shiny shot glass
to Jack is such a tease
pour it... pour it
but do it slow
Jack is there to say squash the drama
to hell they can go
shot of Jack
raise the drink
to life's conformity you will not sink
shot of Jack
ah... the warmth 
coolin down your rage
let the music blare
with a shot of Jack in the air
enjoy the night
the day's end
memory of Jack i had.. the thought i send.
