Charlie Parr - One Eyed Jack lyrics

Well uncle Jack was a gambler Every night he lost all he had Every night he lost all he had Talkin bout 3am he'd gotten it all back He talked through the side of his mouth He chompin on some big cigar, chompin on some big cigar He used to tell me stories about the war And if I had to do it over, all over again You know I'd want to be just like him Well uncle Jack met a movie star And I bragged it up all over town Bragged it up all over town Well the funny thing is she was never 'round I saw the TV selling cars, straight on the back Sellin cars, straight on the back She said she'd bring a nice Lincoln for uncle Jack And if I had to do it over, all over again You know I'd want to be just like him Well uncle Jack was a natural Gambling everything all his life Gambling everything all his life He was 49 on the day he lost his wife Well he lost her at a card game Bluffed and he only had a pair Bluffed and he only had a pair Talkin bout 3am, went home and left her there And if I had to do it over, all over again You know I'd want to be just like him Well if I had to do it over, all over again You know I'd want to be just like him
