Verse 1
Hey Jack Kerouac I think of your mother
And the tears she cried She cried for none other
Than her little boy lost in our little world that hated
And that dared to drag him down
Her little boy courageous
Who chose his words from mouths of
babes got lost in the woods
Hipflask slingin madmen
Steamin cafe flirts
They all spoke through you
Verse 2 (same) Hey Jack now for the tricky part When you where the brightest star Who were the shadows Of the San Francisco beat boys You were their favorite Now they sit and rattle their bones And think of their bloodstone days
Prechorus 2 (same) You chose your words from mouths of Babes got lost in the woods The hipflask slining madmen steamin cafe flirts In Chinatown, howling at night
Bridge (instrumental)

Verse 3 (same) Allen baby, why so jaded Have the boys all grown up And their music faded Billy, what a saint they've made you Just like Mary down in Mexico On all souls day
Prechorus 3 (same) You chose your words from mouths of Babes lost in the woods Cool junk booting madmen Steet minded girls In Harlem howling at night
