THE RETURN OF THE JACK OF HEARTS

When Marie came down to the club
and said you’d blown back in to town
You’d lit out under a big black cloud
Just leaving rumours hanging around
You’d left a few outstanding warrants
And a lot of unpaid bills
You’d left a lot more broken hearts that night
You headed for the hills

You’d thought they’d called a holiday and put bands on in the park
All the town is buzzing about The return of the Jack Of Hearts
Return of the Jack, Return of the Jack, The return of the Jack of Hearts
Return of the Jack, Return of the Jack, The return of the Jack of Hearts

Well Big Joe Bell is mad as hell
Put a price upon your head
The angels must be on your side
To walk the paths they wouldn’t tread
Everyone’s got the notion
You’ve come to right a lot of wrongs
A lot of guys are shaking
Now you’re back where you belong

Ain’t no point in asking
What you’ve been doing all this time
Hidden beneath the Ray Bans
You never give a sign
I’ve got this crazy feeling
Good times are on the way
Now you’ve come home to rule the roost
Now you’ve come back home to stay

Jack’s back, here to stay, No you won’t catch him, not him no way
Jack’s back, so you better pray, If you done him wrong he’s gonna make you pay
Jack’s back, here to stay, Better watch your back every night and day
Better listen to what I got to say, The Return of the Jack of Hearts.
