Henry Zilla - Jack and John Lyrics



Henry Zilla - Jack and John Lyrics
Official




If you turn left instead of right
You will pick yourself a fight
By just following orders, following somebody's orders,
Oh We..
Held a patrol up in the night
I took a man with my own life
Couldn't wait for the order, we acted in order
Oh my dear John
You set sail in March for Spain
You packed your bags and changed your name
You didn't take any orders, you write your own order
I envy that
Flipped a coin and struck a match and I was gone, man
I love you and I've held here for all I can
When you read this, I'll be by the light of the moon
Heading to the Cape where we set sail for last June
I miss you deeply and I long for a time when
We can get blind and sing our songs like old friends
Your last letter gave me a heavy heart my dear Jack
So I'll be humming our song for you when the skies black
I share your wish my brother John
And though our memories linger on
I've crossed through the border, crossed over the border,
Oh I've
Seen too many unholy nights
Spoiling plots and starting fights
I can't see the border, too far from the border
My only wish for you dear man
Is that you carry out are plan
This is my last order, please follow my order, so here I lie
I have turned the ship south sailing back to you Jack
We are three months from the coast just make your way back
Don't give up now my sweet brother we must beat on
For our sails, must hang together just like in our song
As I write to you in this letter we make for first light
I will see you in November to make wrong right
I still hold the lucky sliver knife you gave me
And I'll not forget the day in France in you saved me
