Lucky Jack

Godfather.

Lucky Jack would double back then take a look around
just to see the cat next door walk along the fense
I swear that cat could read Lucky Jacks mind

but it all comes in time
Lucky Jack would act like he just didn't mind
till the night time came and that old cat would cuddle up
next to Lucky Jack and the world seemed all right.

Lucky Jack was a sheppard mutt that never hurt a soul
and I still go back to that place every now and then
that me and Lucky Jack would go

up in the hills chassing rabbits and running wild and free
but mostly following my friends and I on our bicycles
through the trails and creeks
I swear that Lucky Jack could read my mind

but still every now and then I open that door
and Lucky Jack and I are together again
and that old cat just wont leave us alone
I can still see them sleeping on the porch
and Lucky Jack he just don't mind.

but it helps to take away the pain
I hope that old cat comes around again.

I keep waiting for Lucky Jack to double back
and chase me through the trails and down to the creek
cause it helps to take away the pain.

The way you wrote this sorta sounds like lyrics.

And I have to say I actually teared up reading this.

Very sweet.
