Lyrics

VERSE
It’s plain to see I’ve lost another race
I just crossed the finish line runnin’ second place
This time I was dead sure your lovin’ was all mine
I could see forever in your eyes

CHORUS
(Yeah) Jack’s back, and I’m on the road again
Jack’s back, no tellin’ where he’s been
Just about the time I thought I was all settled in
Jack’s back, and I’m on the road again

VERSE
Half-packed suitcase; city limit sign
Jack just took back what I thought was mine
Although I knew you loved him, I thought I could win
Jack’s back, and I'm on the road again

Repeat CHORUS/BRIDGE
I know you know better, but you can’t help yourself
When Jack comes back, it’s like he’s never left

Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/Repeat CHORUS/TAG
Jack’s back, and I’m on the road again
