Uncle Jack Lyrics

Gazing on the seaweed skies
Falling down before your eyes
He can show you (show you)

Have you met my Uncle Jack?
Have you met my Uncle Jack?
Wonder what you're all about
He can bring the inside out
He can show you (show you)

"So many lives to live" - I heard him say
"But some people live to give themselves away
To find peace of mind, waiting where they can't get it"

Standing there, he's so deceiving
Has he been or is he leaving
Looking in his sea green eyes
Uncle Jack will tell no lies
Can you see it?

"So many lives to live" - I heard him say
"But some people live to give themselves away
To find peace of mind, waiting where they can't get it"

Have you met my Uncle Jack?
I want to take you in hand
Let you see and you will understand
I can show you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
