I don't know the sound of my father's voice 
I don't even know how he says my name 
But it plays out like a song on a jukebox in a bar 
In the back of my head 
Till its worrying machine 
And in the cotton fields by the house where I was born 
The leaves burn like effigies of my kin 
And the trains run like snakes 
Through the Pentecostal pines 
Filled up with cotton and dime store gin 
Oh Jacksonville, how you burden my soul 
How you hold all my dreams captive 
Jacksonville, how you play with my mind 
How my heart goes bad 
Suffocating on the pines in Jacksonville 
The end, the end, the end 

All the cars are lined up on a Saturday night 
With a sky full of nothing but moon 
And I lose my reflection in a bottle of wine 
Till the morning comes down 
And I ain't nothing but blue (you) 
At the diner in the morning for a plate of eggs 
The waitress tries to give me change, I say 
"Nah its cool. you just keep it" 
I read up my news 
I start thinking about her 
And I wonder if anybody here besides me 
Has got any decent secrets 
Oh Jacksonville, how you burden my soul 
How you hold all my dreams captive 
Jackson-Hell, how you play with my mind 
How my heart goes bad suffocating on the pines 
In Jacksonville 
The end, the end, the end
