Captain Jack (Live April 1972 At Sigma Sound Studios, Wmmr Radio, Philadelphia, Pa)

Saturday night 'nd you're still hangin' around
You're tired of livin' in your one horse town
You'd like to find a little hole in the ground
For a while, mmh
So, you go to the village in your tie-dye jeans
And you stare at the junkies and the closet queens
It's like some pornographic magazine
And you smile, mmh

But Captain Jack will get you high tonight
And take you to your special island
Captain Jack will get you by tonight
Just a little push 'n' you'll be smilin'
La-da-da, oh yeah, yeah

Your sister's gone out, she's on a date
And you just sit at home and masturbate
Your phone is gonna ring soon, but you just can't wait
For that call, mmh
So, you stand on the corner in your new English clothes
And you look so polished from your hair down to your toes
Oh, but still your finger's gonna pick your nose
After all, mmh, yeah

But Captain Jack will get you high tonight
And take you to your special island
Captain Jack will get you by tonight
Just a little push 'n' you'll be smilin'

So, you decide to take holiday
You got your tape deck and your brand new Chevrolet
Ah, but there ain't no place to go anyway, except Philadelphia
And what for, mmh
So, you've got everything, oh, but nothing's cool
They've just found your father in the swimming pool
And you guess you won't be going back to school
Anymore, mmh, yeah, yeah

But Captain Jack can get you high tonight
And take you to your special island
Captain Jack can make you fly tonight
Just a little push 'n' you'll be smilin'
Oh, no, no, no, no

So, you play your albums and you smoke your pot?
And you meet your girlfriend in the parking lot
Oh, but still you're aching for the things you have not got
What went wrong, mmh
And if you can't understand why your world is so dead
And why you've got to keep in style and feed your head
Well, you're twenty-one and still your mother makes your bed
And that's too long, mmh
Woah, woah, yeah, yeah

But Captain Jack will get you high tonight
And take you to your special island
Oh, that Captain Jack will get you by tonight
Just a little push 'n' you'll be smilin'
And the Captain Jack will get you high tonight
And take you to your special island
Oh, Captain Jack could make you die tonight
But just a little push 'n' you'll be smilin'

Thank you
Woo
