Up jumped jack on the railroad track

Said "i've got to get out of town"

"it's been really nice knowing you"

"hope to see you around"



Oh the boy he could boogie

Oh the boy can kick a ball

But the boy he got hung up

Smooching in the stalls



You've got to give a little love

To those who love to live

You've got to take a little hate

From those who have to wait



Up jumped john putting his trousers on

Saying "i've got to get out of here"

"hear your lover's footsteps"

"they're coming to near for me my dear"



Oh the boy he could boogie

Oh the boy can kick a ball

But the boy he got hung up

Making love against the wall



You've got to give a little love

To those who love to live

You've got to take a little hate

From those who have to wait
