Mr. Dock Is Coming Soon

lyrics

Mr. Dock is coming soon
He smells as whisky, smoke and sweat
Spends the day at the saloon
It’s said that he lives on game

Many years had trying to make the most of what he got
Now he´s absolutely ruined, even women stand him up

He used to visit the Old Casino
He was very keen on girls
Always a pretty one in bed
And giving him luck in the Blackjack

Mr. Dock never thought one of those would be the last
By the time he asked her marriage there was no cent in his bag

Can’t turn his face back, nobody is by his side now

Life was so cruel to him, there’s nothing left to win, but love
And it´s not worth making efforts to go on

Mr. Dock thought that could
Change Jack Daniel´s for some tea
And his girlfriend would lose
Her vicious ways for him

He was planning bring up children
Earning money, mending shoes
Riding horses building houses
And his dog's what he'd choose
No dog lied on his knees
No dog lied on his knees
Mr. Dock forgot to hide
His gifts before they disappeared

Now he’s entering the sixties
He’s getting on with pills
Pretty girlfriend ran away from him
On the table, a pile of bills

Can´t turn his face back, nobody is by his side now

Life was so cruel to him, there’s nothing left to win, but love
And it’s not worth making efforts to go on
If you have so more to lose, cards are still in the saloon, but now
Game is longer
Girls are older X2
Game is longer X2
