Some people say you gotta hold on to what you got
Then you wander just what it is you have
I been waiting for my glory and how about yours ?
How's it going with that pretty little heart you got
You ran into a big black tv cat
While you was looking for a greyhound shuffle
And pay your cash to the man in black
You're just a looking through the alleys for a boy named jack
And then you're looking for a rose in bloom
You got your strings all broken but your shoes tided up
You're making love in the afternoon
That girl man, she got me gambling
She gonna come out on top
You ran into a big black tv cat
While you was looking for a greyhound shuffle
And pay your cash to the man in black
You're just a looking through the alleys for a boy named jack
