When Jake's in Town

I got a girl, she's 32, but she's got a boyfriend as well

She might like me, but then she might love him

She says it's just too soon to tell

We don't make love 'cuz she thinks it's wrong but last week we rented out a motel just to sleep

We go for walks, we go to shows but not when Jake's in town

We laugh and kiss, we reminisce, but not when Jake's around

And I'm not there when his car pulls up and he rolls his window down and says "I missed you"

Jake's in town

I feel so down

I wish he was ten feet in the ground

Well I can't sleep and I can't wake up cuz Jake got in last night

And I think of him in that familiar bed and it just don't feel right

And I'm not usually the jealous type but I hope they get in a fight and she tells him everything

Jake's in town

I feel so down

I wish he was ten feet in the ground

Well I talked to Anne, she says she talked to Jake, and she told him everything

He took it bad and then he got real sad but he understands it's just a fling

And when she told me Jake took her back I felt an awful sting like I'd peed my pants in public

Jake's in town

I feel so down

I wish I was ten feet in the ground
