Lyrics
I've got an eight-ton jack
You better stand back
The way things are going you're gonna have a heart-attack
My jack can move a mountain with flick of my finger
My jack is getting big and my jack is getting bigger
I've got an eight-ton jack (his jack is getting bigger)
You better stand back (he's got an itchy trigger finger)
When my jack is involved sometimes I can't stop
Things go up but then they're gonna drop
That's my eight-ton jack
