Happy Jack Lyrics By The Who

    john entwistle
    happy jack wasn’t old but he was a man
    he lived in the sand at the isle of man
    the kids would all sing he would take the wrong key
    so they rode on his head in their furry donkey

    roger daltrey john entwistle pete townshend
    the kids couldn’t hurt jack
    they tried tried tried
    they dropped things on his back
    they lied lied lied lied lied

    john entwistle
    but they couldn’t stop jack or the waters lapping
    and they couldn’t prevent jack from feeling happy

    but they couldn’t stop jack or the waters lapping
    and they couldn’t prevent jack from feeling happy

    drum keith moon

    roger daltrey john entwistle pete townshend
    the kids couldn’t hurt jack
    they tried tried tried
    they dropped things on his back
    they lied lied lied lied lied

    john entwistle
    but they couldn’t stop jack or the waters lapping
    and they couldn’t prevent jack from being happy

    ad libs pete townshend
    i saw yer
