his conscience cries,"get on your feet

chorus:
 6  7   7   -4 6    6    6   6   -5  -5
grocer jack,grocer jack,get off your back

 5  6 6  6   -5    -5    5   5  -4 5-4 4 3
go into town don`t let them down,oh no no

verse:

the people that live in the town
don`t understand,he`s never been known
to miss his round
it`s ten o`clock,the housewives yell
"when jack turns up,we`ll give him hell"
husbands moan at breakfast tables,
no milk,no eggs,no marmalade labels
mother`s send their children out
to jacks house to scream and shout.

repeat chorus.

it`s sunday morning,bright and clear,
lovely flowers,decorate a marble square
people cry and mourn away 
think about the fateful day
now they wish they`d given jack
more affection and respect
the little children dressed in black
don`t know what`s happened to old jack.

grocer jack,grocer jack,is it true what mummy said
you won`t come back,oh no no.
