Cracker Jack Kid

If there's anything left you will need it now

So reach deep inside yourself

And show them all how

You can survive

And you knew it wasn't gonna be easy

So ease your hand

And take a long drive to unwind

The Cracker Jack Kid

You've got to search for the prize

And always remember

I. me. mine

And you the youngest

Fullest of heart

Yeah you the restless

You could never go to bed

Yeah you the speechless

You pretended that you could read

Until you were ten

The Cracker Jack Kid

You've got to search for the prize

And always remember

I. me. mine

The Cracker Jack Kid

You've got to search for the prize

And always remember

Jump jangle jiggle and rock

Fly through the sky

Sail across the top

Spin out. give out. give in

You're alive

Remember, memories

Don't hold you down

Some of them even make you

Laugh out lout

Yeah you are a smiling

Squinty eyed brow

You've got some kind of something happening

Inside you now

The Cracker Jack Kid

You've got to search for the prize

And always remember

I. me. mine
