The Decemberists

Easy Come, Easy Go

Limber Jack, he landed on his back

Was bedding on the netting when the rigging went slack

Was a moonless night, the stars all lending light

She's leering in the mirror when the rodent rode right

Cause you never really know

When the whistle's gonna blow

You never really know

Easy come and easy go

He was a stand-up gent, but no one knew his bent

And all the little bones that he hid in his vent

She was the come-on queen, to along the scene

He found her in the shower, she'd been gone for seven weeks

Cause you never really know

When the whistle's gonna blow

You never really know

Easy come and easy go

Cause you never really know

When the whistle's gonna blow

You never really know

Easy come and easy go

Limber Jack, his name is on the plaque

His mother is another that will never get him back
