The Wacky Hack
Jack drives a hack checkered white and black. While he drives he loves to yak
and smoke cigarettes by the pack. He calls all the guys "Jack," and all the gals
"Mac" - even though not long ago one gal gave him such a whack that he landed
smack on his back and broke his sac•ro•il•i•ac.
Despite his wife's flak, Jack often goes to the track where he searches in vain
for the winning knack, then later drowns his sorrow with a sudsy six-pack.
Being broke, he lives in a wracked shack. Having no bed, he sleeps in a haystack.
And having no hangers, he tacks his slacks in plaster cracks.
Good gracious! How Jack's life lacks !
