a boy in black leather - the waterboys lyrics

jackie was one of the crowd
who hung out at the cross keys hotel
she was a real bright kid
thought i knew her pretty well
beach parties at night
we ran down town in the day
till a boy in black leather
came and took jackie away
we were all in the keys one night
sitting, laughing and joking
billy’d got himself a new job
ross had given up smoking
i was crazy for jackie
i was almost ready to say
when a boy in black leather
came and took jackie away
he was standing at the bar
when i went up for a drink
then he and she just started talking
i didn’t know what to think
billy pulled me into an argument
about the big bad world today
i looked up and a boy in black leather
was taking jackie away
after that things began to get dull
i took up with billy’s sister molly
but that got really kicked on the head
when she upped and went to college
i got to thinking about jackie
and as autumn moved into gray
i thought about a boy in black leather
who came and took jackie away
then this month i saw her
the girl i knew had all but gone
tight jeans, mohair sweater
her hair was chopped off, peroxide blond
i crossed the road towards her
thinking of something to say
when a boy in black leather walked over
and together they hurried away
