I'll Never Play Jacksonville Again |
Two young girls were swept down the culverts in the rain |
St. Petersburg was flooded again |
I reached my hand out for them but I watched them slip away |
And I had to get up to Jacksonville that day |
I don’t need anyone to remind me |
I don’t get the big picture |
I don’t need anybody to find me |
Hangin' from a lighting fixture and |
I’ll never play Jacksonville again |
I’ll never get on that southbound aeroplane |
They gave me a ticket pointed me south |
Gave me five hundred bucks to shut my mouth |
I’ll never play Jacksonville |
I’ll never have that weird thrill |
I’ll never play Jacksonville again, again |
The road was like a river, the fields were like the sea |
The thunder clouds were closin' in on me |
I gunned that motor onward up route 1−95 |
Checked my pulse, yep, still alive |
I don’t need anyone to remind me |
To take my hand out of a fire |
I don’t need anybody to find me |
Tied up with piano wiring |
I’ll never play Jacksonville again |
I’ll never get on that southbound aeroplane |
They gave me a ticket pointed me south |
Gave me five hundred bucks to just shut your mouth |
I’ll never play Jacksonville |
I’ll never have that weird thrill |
I’ll never play Jacksonville again, again |
They put me on at the milk bar and said, «Hey, good luck, kid |
Here’s your Jagermeister, here’s half a lid» |
Put the past behind you, it’s over, pay your bill |
This is where it ends now, Jacksonville |
I don’t need anyone to remind me |
I’m on the end of a skewer |
I don’t need anybody to find me |
Floatin' around in the sewer |
I’ll never play Jacksonville again |
I’ll never get on that southbound aeroplane |
They gave me a ticket pointed me south |
Gave me five hundred bucks to shut my mouth |
I’ll never play Jacksonville |
I’ll never have that weird thrill |
I’ll never play Jacksonville again, yeah, yeah, yeah |
I’ll never play Jacksonville |
Never, never, never play Jacksonville |
No, I’ll never, no, I’ll never |
No, I’ll never play Jacksonville |
No, I’ll never, no, I’ll never |
No, I’ll never play Jacksonville again, again |
