Have you seen the 'Jack In The Green'?   With his long tail hanging down   He quietly sits under every tree   In the folds of his velvet gown      He drinks from the empty acorn cup   The dew that dawn sweetly bestows   And taps his cane upon the ground   Signals the snowdrops it's time to grow      It's no fun being 'Jack In The Green'   No place to dance, no time for song   He wears the colors of the summer soldier   Carries the green flag all the winter long      Jack, do you never sleep?   Does the green still run deep in your heart?   Or will these changing times   Motorways, powerlines, keep us apart?   Well, I don't think so   I saw some grass growing through the pavements today      The rowan, the oak and the holly tree   Are the charges left for you to groom   Each blade of grass whispers 'Jack In The Green'   Oh Jack, please help me through my winter's night      And we are the berries on the holly tree   And the mistlethrush is coming   Jack, put out the light
