Brownsville Station - My Friend Jack Lyrics






I got a friend and his name is Jack
Lives in a bottle and the label's black
Not only that, we're a hell of a team
Seems to have meaning
Without all in my dreams

(My friend Jack!)
He's a hell of a friend
(My friend Jack!)
Be with me til the end
(My friend Jack!)
Always by my side
My friend Jack, best thing I've ever tried

Well, I met 'ol Jack in Lynchburg, Tennessee
A big cold-hearted woman got the best of me
Rejected, broken-hearted, lonesome and blue
But good 'ol Jack, he helped to pull me through

(My friend Jack!)
He's a hell of a friend
(My friend Jack!)
Be with me til the end
(My friend Jack!)
Always by my side
My friend Jack, best thing I've ever tried

All right!

Now, to this day he's always by my side
26 ounces of courage and pride
I don't have no worries, 'cept for maybe one
To wake up one morning - find that Jack is gone

(My friend Jack!)
He's a hell of a friend
(My friend Jack!)
Be with me til the end
(My friend Jack!)
Always by my side
My friend Jack, best thing I've ever tried

One more!
(My friend Jack!)
He's a hell of a friend
(My friend Jack!)
Be with me til the end
(My friend Jack!)
Always by my side
My friend Jack, best thing I've ever tried

    As an old friend of Cub's I appreciate your work. I cannot speak for him. I believe that he would dig it. And add "Boogey On". I am Daddy Wiltone. And I approve this video. Like that matters. Haha. In all honesty. I do believe that Cub would approve.

    @Bruce Nazarian Hey Bruce, thanks! I made this back when I was experimenting with Windows Movie Maker and still images/scans. Initially I uploaded it in 2008, but then took it down. Re-loaded it again (this one) in 2011. Here's the full version with Sleazy Louise, Lady, and My Friend Jack...Cheers! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9j_O6j2ptE

    Saw Cub Koda's band in '84 at a little club in Roanoke called The Iriquois. There were only about 10 people in the club but the band still played like they were in an arena with thousands. I brought this album with me and he signed it. RIP Cub!

    @drprogensteinphp
    You, Sir, must be shitting me with that Viitasaari.
    Nevertheless, this was an important band to me and my brother when we "found" Yeah in the early eighties. Real boogie (Martian?) instead of that seventies-eighties glam rock and metal I also love. But everyone needs to have something of a variety at times to stay (in)sane.

    @Joonavainio
    Yes...they're an off-shoot of the band "Viitasaariville Station".
    Happy New Year from Siglavik, Manitoba Canada!

    Michigan? Maybe they're part Finnish then. Anyway, although I can't stand bourbon, I'll raise a happy new year glass of scotch to them.
