Lyrics
Smiling Jack is off again
I wonder what he's thinking
He won't be back until he's been
The full length of the kitchen
If I had a lot of money
If I had a lot of time
I'd give myself to Smiling Jack
Each minute, every dime
Smiling Jack is a climbing man
And he aims to climb the table
He want to be as high as me
I'll catch him if I'm able
But I know there will be bruises
I know there will be scars
And I'll not keep his little hand
From reaching for the stars
Smiling Jack is sleeping still
I listen to the breathing
Time will change the both of us
And I know someday he'll be leaving
So I'll watch him from a distance
Let me hold him while I can
By and by they'll turn my Smiling Jack
Into a man
Smiling Jack is off again
I wonder where he's going
