Jefferson was always out of luck
I remember when we both grew up
Jefferson got hit by a westbound truck
I guess that didn't make him look like a million bucks
That night when Sally really stole the show
And every boy was captured diggin' for gold
Poor old Jefferson was left in the snow
I'm gonna pray for Jefferson
Pray for Jefferson's soul
Jefferson is always on my mind
When him and me were runnin' out of time
Jefferson was sure enough left behind
The cops came in and took him by surprise
That night when Sally really showed her game
The neighbourhood would never be the same
Poor old Jefferson got the blame
I'm gonna pray for Jefferson
Pray for Jefferson's soul
I do believe he didn't do wrong
I say a prayer for someone I care for
That night when Sally really gave it all
And made us small boys look quite tall
Poor old Jefferson left the ball.
Lyrics

Translated by: noni
Jefferson nikdy neměl štěstí
Vzpomínám, že když jsme spolu vyrůstali
Srazil ho náklaďák
Asi potom nevypadal jako milion babek
Tu noc, kdy se Sally opravdu zmocnila představení
A kdy každý kluk kopal zlato
Chudáka Jeffersona zapomněli ve sněhu
Budu se za Jeffersona modlit
Budu se modlit za Jeffersonovu duši
Jeffersona mám pořád na mysli
Když jsme spolu utíkali mimo čas
Jeffersona jsme skoro jistě zapomínali
Policajti přišli a překvapivě ho zatkli
Tu noc, kdy Sally opravdu ukázala svou hru
Sousedství nikdy nebude stejné
Svalili to na chudáka Jeffersona
Budu se za Jeffersona modlit
Budu se modlit za Jeffersonovu duši
Věřím, že neudělal nic špatného
Modlím se za někoho, na kom mi záleží
Tu noc, kdy nám to Sally všecko dala
A dokázala, že my, malí kluci, jsme vypadali docela velcí
Chudák Jefferson odešel z plesu
