Jackie left home on a cold dark night
Telling me he'd be home
Served the seas for a hundred years and
Left me all alone
And I've been dead for twenty years
I've been washing the sand with my ghostly tears
Searching the shores for my Jackie

I remember the day that a young man came
He said your Jackie is gone, we got lost in the rain
I ran to the beach
And laid me down

You're all wrong I said and thеy stared to the sand
That man knows the sеa like the back of his hand
He'll be back sometime
Laughing at you

And I've been waiting all this time
For my man to come take his hand in mine
And lead me away to unseen shores
I've been washing the sand with my ghostly tears
Searching the shore these long years
And I'll walk the seas forever more

Till I find my Jackie
My Jackie
My Jackie
My Jackie
My Jackie

And I've roamed, and I've wandered restless nights
Aimless gunshots blind-fired
Blind-fired
Blind-fired

My Jackie
My Jackie
My Jackie
My Jackie
My Jackie
My Jackie
My Jackie

My Jackie
My Jackie
