I used to hang out, down at jack's pool hall
C7
You go down there, don't do nothin' at all
C7
You wanted to play some cards there was a game in the back
C7
You wanted to shoot of somethin', you went and talked to jack
C7
If you had a little money you was a grade a fool
C7
There was a guy down there who used to shoot a little pool
