Jacky Bones you walked in the saloon Ready to howl at the moon You're afraid you can't handle change I'm not like you so I must be insane Oh, don't you close your eyes Jacky Bones, don't close your eyes Don't close your eyes Jacky Bones, you're looking at your cards But that hand won't get you very far You're alright with black white and red But other colors go over your head Oh, don't you close your eyes Jacky Bones, don't close your eyes Don't close your eyes While you're howling at the moon We might come storming in to steal your silver spoon We don't mean you no pain But we won't let you take our souls away Jacky Bones, don't close your eyes Don't close your eyes Jacky Bones, you're threatened to the core On our words you're waging war You're shaking in your boots, you're confused By the way we voice our strange views Oh, don't you close your eyes Jacky Bones, don't close your eyes Don't close your eyes Jacky Bones, don't close your eyes Don't close your eyes
