Limber Jack, he landed on his back
Was bedding on the netting when the rigging went slack
Was a moonless night, the stars all lending light
She´s leering in the mirror when the rodent rode right

Cause you never really know
When the whistle´s gonna blow
You never really know
Easy come and easy go

He was a stand-up gent, but no one knew his bent
And all the little bones that he hid in his vent
She was the come-on queen, to along the scene
He found her in the shower, she´d been gone for seven weeks

Cause you never really know
When the whistle´s gonna blow
You never really know
Easy come and easy go

Cause you never really know

When the whistle´s gonna blow
You never really know
Easy come and easy go

Limber Jack, his name is on the plaque
His mother is another that will never get him back
