The Day That Jackie Jumped the Jail
The day that Jackie jumped the jail
The day that Jackie jumped the jail
There was a big explosion just as he got off the motorway
And thirty thousand fireworks took the piss out of Princes Street
Gardens
So he drove up to the Budgie for a livener
See the smell of cabbages first thing in the morning
The sun will be up again
And you you will be loved again
After the sausages and cream of the barley
There was aframe or two to be had at the "Imperial" on Mitchell Street
Five years ago he'd buried her memory with a snooker cue on a daft wee
student's head
Still he remembered everything
The sun will be up again
And you you will be loved again
And the wind
And the rain
And the wind
And the rain
Falls around
I don't know
I don't know
Ooh yeah
Ooh yeah
As he walked down Hope Street he thought about the last time they'd been
together
He'd been wearing a green parka and he'd bought her yellow stilettos
That squeezed her toes
He'd told her the whole story as she took him into the wee penn behind
Sloan's
And let him feel her all over
For the last time
Ten minutes later the meat wagon picked him up
The sun will be up again
And you
You
You
You will be loved
You will be loved
You will be loved again
And the wind
And the rain
And the wind
And the rain
Falls around
All over this town
Ooh yeah
Ooh yeah
Falls around
All over this town
All over this town
Falls around
All over
All over
Ooh yeah
All over
