Jak o' the Shadows? in Legacy Saga Archive Posted June 28, 2012 · Edited June 28, 2012 by jak-o-shadow We'll drink the wine till the cup is dry, And kiss the girls so they'll not cry, And toss the dice until we fly, To dance with Jak o' the Shadows. We'll dance all night until the moon runs free, And dandle the lasses upon our knee, And then you'll ride along with me, To dance with Jak o' the Shadows. We'll sing all night, and drink all day, And on the girls we'll spend our pay, And when it's gone, then we'll away, To dance with Jak o' the Shadows. There's some delight in ale and wine, And some in girls with ankles fine, But my delight, yes, always mine, Is to dance with Jak o' the Shadows. [1] The third verse was sung differently in LOC 5. Below are the different lyrics. We drink all night and dance all day, and on the girls we spend our pay, and when we're done, then we'll away, to dance with Jak o' the Shadows. An extra stanza was added by the Band of the Red Hand after the defeat of the Shaido at Cairhien in honor of Mat. We'll toss the dice however they fall, And snuggle the girls be they short or tall, Then follow young Mat whenever he calls, To dance with Jak o' the Shadows. Some time after adding the extra stanza, the Band changed "young" to "Lord," much to Mat's annoyance.

We'll drink the wine till the cup is dry,
And kiss the girls so they'll not cry,
And toss the dice until we fly,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows.
We'll dance all night until the moon runs free,
And dandle the lasses upon our knee,
And then you'll ride along with me,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows.
We'll sing all night, and drink all day,
And on the girls we'll spend our pay,
And when it's gone, then we'll away,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows.

And some in girls with ankles fine,
But my delight, yes, always mine,
