One For Jo Lyrics - L.a. Turnaround - Bert Jansch

It's one for Jo 

Don't let your man go 

He's a dreamer darling 

He's even kind'a slow 

I don't believe the tales he tells 

But they're always nice to hear 

He's a dreamer darling 

Always keep him near 

In a white tuxedo 

He's remarkably cool 

A prince of living 

Who knows all the rules 

In a black sedan so royally 

He takes his love to school 

And no-one can reproach him 

No-one but a fool 

He's a bold sea captain 

In his boots and oilskin hat 

Struggling blindly 

Through seas wild and black 

Down the river he glides 

With his baby by his side 

And when you think of that gal 

How can your love hide 

It's one for Jo 

Don't let your man go 

He's a dreamer darling 

He's even kind'a slow 

I don't believe the tales he tells 

But they're always nice to hear 

He's a dreamer darling 

Always keep him near
