Letter To Jacksonville Lyrics by Peter Thom

Peter Thom

1972

You're down in Jacksonville Texas
While I'm up in Montreal
Your dancing feet take you to the Gulf Stream flows
While I'm here singing up a storm
Where the cold wind blows
Mornings go by in my music
While you're moving to a different tune
Each of us ramble on a road of our own
But come next Sunday afternoon
We'll be heading on home
Yes, I've been lonely for you
And sometimes it drag me down
But there's a-no use in wearing a frown
So I've been smiling
Smiling all the while
But next week I will be laughing again
The coming attraction is you
So dance away your blues and hear me sing away mine
Until I see you again
Have a mighty fine time
There's a plane overhead interfering with my hearing
Oh lord, I wish I was a boulder
Take me back on across the border
Into your sweet loving, magic little arms
But you're way down in Jacksonville Texas
While I'm up in Montreal
So dance away your blues and hear me sing away mine
Until I see you again
Have a mighty fine time
