Lyrics
A JACK D EPIPHANY
IT HAPPENED LAST WEEK, STRANGEST THING I'D EVER SEEN
AT A BAR WITH MY BEST FRIEND, JACK AND ME
MY HEAD WAS SWIRLIN LIKE I WAS IN A DREAM
CAUSE I'D STOPPED COUNTIN AFTER THREE
I SWORE I SAW MY WOMAN, DANCIN SLOWLY ON THE FLOOR
WITH A LONG, LEAN COWBOY, ABOUT SIX FOOT FOUR
CHORUS:
I SAID JACK WHAT'S GOIN DOWN
GIVE IT TO ME STRAIGHT
LAUGHIN, HE SAID YOU KNOW SHE AIN'T GONNA WAIT
HE SAID, FROM NOW ON, IT'S JUST YOU AND ME
IN A FLASH I HAD WHAT'S CALLED
A STRAIGHT JACK D EPIPHANY
A JACK D EPIPHANY
GOT HOME THAT NIGHT, SHE WAS WAITIN PATIENTLY
TOOK HER IN MY ARMS AND KISSED HER TENDERLY
I SAID JACK'S GOTTEN THE BEST OF ME
HE'S GOT ME SEEIN THINGS I DON'T WANT TO SEE
I SWORE I SAW YOU DANCIN SLOWLY CROSS THE FLOOR
WITH A LONG LEAN COWBOY, ABOUT SIX FOOT FOUR
CHORUS:
I SAID JACK WHAT'S GOIN DOWN
GIVE IT TO ME STRAIGHT
LAUGHIN, HE SAID YOU KNOW SHE AIN'T GONNA WAIT
HE SAID FROM NOW ON IT'S JUST YOU AND ME
IN A FLASH I HAD WHAT'S CALLED
A STRAIGHT JACK D EPIPHANY
A JACK D EPIPHANY
BRIDGE:
JACK TELLS LIES
AND WATERS DOWN MY SOUL
THE BOTTLE THAT HE LIVES IN
IS JUST A LONG DARK HOLE
CHORUS:
SO I SAID JACK YOU'RE GOIN DOWN
GONNA GIVE IT TO YOU STRAIGHT
I LOOKED HIM IN THE EYE
AND SAID IT'S TOO DAMN LATE
FROM NOW ON, IT'S JUST MY WOMAN AND ME
CAUSE I JUST HAD MYSELF
A STRAIGHT JACK D EPIPHANY
A JACK D EPIPHANY
A JACK D EPIPHANY
A JACK D EPIPHANY
