Where did you go Jack?
















Where did you go Jack?
The light is out in your living room.
I can't see you asleep on the couch with the TV on.

Where did you go Jack?
Your pickup is no longer backed up to the street.
Tomato's and onions can't be found.







Where did you go Jack?
The rooster's call is silent.
The dog is not on watch.





Did that dirty bastard take you down?
Did that dirty bastard blind your eyes?
The ones you loved you hurt the most.


Where did you go Jack?
The One that loved, you recited His creed.
Every Sunday week after week after week.
...I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
the Creator of heaven and earth,
and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord...


Did that dirty bastard take you down?
Did that dirty bastard blind your eyes?
....was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended to the dead.


Where did you go Jack?
Were you blind and now you see?
....On the third day he rose again; he ascended into heaven, he is seated at the right hand of the Father, and he will come again to judge the living and the dead.




I hope you're in the garden admiring the lack of weeds.
Eating sweet onions at the table with the King of kings.
I hope that dirty bastard didn't get the best of you.
I hope that dirty bastard didn't keep you from the Truth.
