[Verse 1]
Jack of all trade
Master of everything
Lived a life with a spice
For the party he brings
[Pre-Chorus]
He could out-pray the Pope
More junk, more dope
He was my missin' link
Pour him another drink
[Chorus]
He was always there
To hear the church-bells ringing
Front row, right pew
So that he could be seen
[Verse 2]
I was with him through all of this
But a few things that he missed
He didn't teach me a dad gone thing
But how to sing
He charmed all the ladies
They would watch his show
He made art from his heart
He could make a tear flow
Jack of all trade
Master of everything
Lived a life with a spice
For the party he brings
[Pre-Chorus]
He could out-pray the Pope
More junk, more dope
He was my missin' link
Pour him another drink
[Chorus]
He was always there
To hear the church-bells ringing
Front row, right pew
So that he could be seen
[Verse 2]
I was with him through all of this
But a few things that he missed
He didn't teach me a dad gone thing
But how to sing
He charmed all the ladies
They would watch his show
He made art from his heart
He could make a tear flow
