Jacklyn was sixteen when he rolls, into town

She fell deep and fast

Thought she would drown

It didn’t take long, till he pushed her around

                      Chorus

Someone put Jack in a box, Jack in a box

Red nails, high heels

Do whatever he wants

Someone put Jack in a box, Jack in a box

Ain’t no child’s game, when he slides the key in the locks

Jacklyn cooked and cleaned, she never stepped out of line

Endured the pain

And the shame

Always three steps behind

Told herself everyday she wouldn’t take it next time

                       Chorus

Someone put Jack in a box, Jack in a box

Red nails, high heels

Do whatever he wants

Someone put Jack in a box, Jack in a box

Ain’t no child’s game, when he slides the key in the locks

The next time came too soon, she couldn’t take it no more

Thought “I’m gonna make it this time” when her hand hit the door

Felt the pain

Heard the shot

Seen her blood on the floor

                           Chorus

Someone put Jack in a box, Jack in a box

Red nails, high heels

Do whatever he wants

Someone put Jack in a box, Jack in a box

Ain’t no child’s game, when he slides the key in the locks

Jacklyn was nineteen when he rolled out of town

Handcuffed, backseat

Can’t push no one around

Jacklyn is free, can’t you see

Her family standing around

Bells are ringing, choir singing

Lower the  box in the ground

                     Chorus

No one can put Jack in a box, Jack in a box

No fear, no pain

No closed doors with big locks

No one can put Jack in a box, Jack in a box

White dress

Silver wings

Fly where ever she wants….
