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

And all the little bones that he hid in his vent
She was the come-on queen, jewel 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
