The teacher had you write a letter, you were eight years old

About the man that you’d become and the positions you’d hold

But this was long before you and Jackie Geronimo met in the Prelude Park at midnight

Now when it came to bells and whistles, Jackie did not lack

And when she kissed you on the kisser, boy, you kissed her back

Now you tell her that you love her and she cuts you slack

When you drink with your buddies on the weekend

And the weeks fly by and the years roll on

You spend your whole life dropping nickels in the bucket, wakin’ up at dawn

And while Jackie bestowed the joys of fingerlickin’

The clock up on the wall was tickin’

You got yourself a job cleaning hospital floors

But Jackie had a baby, then she had five more

They’d pay you just enough to drag your ass to the store

To buy bread, milk and Better Homes & Gardens

Jackie flips the pages and she dreams little dreams

A cottage in the country built with real wood beams

There’s a baby in the bedroom, he’s starting to scream
