the walkabouts – jack candy lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
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

[chorus]
this is a story that i’ve prayed to tell
this is a story that i’ve prayed to tell
about the day they drove him from this town
about the day i lost: jack candy

[verse 2]
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

[chorus]
this is a story that i’ve prayed to tell
this is a story that i’ve prayed to tell
about the day they drove him from this town
about the day i lost: jack candy

[guitar solo]

[verse 3]
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

[chorus]
this is a story that i’ve prayed to tell
this is a story that i’ve prayed to tell
about the day they drove him from this town
about the day they drove him from this town

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
