Текст песни Decemberists - Easy Come Easy Go

--              x2

Limber-Jack, he landed on his back
Was betting 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 broke 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, jewel on the scene
They found her in the shower she'd been gone for seven weeks

Cause you never really know (no you never really know)
When the whistle's gonna blow
You never really know (no you never really know)
Easy come and easy go

Cause you never really know (no you never really know)
When the whistle's gonna blow
You never really know (no you never-ever know)
Easy come and easy go

Oh, Limber-Jack, his name is on the plaque
His mother is another that will never get him back
