Bruce Springsteen - Jack Of All Trades

i’ll mow your lawn, clean the leaves out your drain i’ll mend your roof to keep out the rain i’ll take the work that god provides i’m a jack of all trades, honey, we’ll be alright i’ll hammer the nails, and i’ll set the stone i’ll harvest your crops when they’re ripe and grown i’ll pull that engine apart and patch her up ’til she’s running right i’m a jack of all trades, we’ll be alright a hurricane blows, brings a hard rain when the blue sky breaks, feels like the world’s gonna change we’ll start caring for each other like jesus said that we might i’m a jack of all trades, we’ll be alright the banker man grows fatter, the working man grows thin it’s all happened before and it’ll happen again it’ll happen again, they’ll bet your life i’m a jack of all trades and, darling, we’ll be alright now sometimes tomorrow comes soaked in treasure and blood here we stood the drought, now we’ll stand the flood there’s a new world coming, i can see the light i’m a jack of all trades, we’ll be alright so you use what you’ve got, and you learn to make do you take the old, you make it new if i had me a gun, i’d find the bastards and shoot ‘em on sight i’m a jack of all trades, we’ll be alright
