Colin Meloy - Easy Come, Easy Go lyrics

[Verse 1] Limber Jack, he landed on his back Was betting 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 road it broke right [Chorus] Cause you never really know When the whistle's gonna blow You never really know Easy come and easy go [Verse 2] 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, j**el on the scene He found her in the shower, she'd been gone for seven weeks [Chorus x2] [Outro] Limber Jack, his name is on the plaque His mother is another that will never get him back
