Wish you were here Jackie
I have always been your man
I wish you would come back
To the American land
You ended up in Kenya
For the Embassy
But your Visa will renew
So you'll come back home to me
And you, you are mine
Yes you, you are mine


Since you've been out of Dallas,
I've been feeling sore
You’re always my princess
I know you are not a whore
It is so hard to hear you
Way beyond the ocean tide
If you come back to Texas
I will soon make you my bride
And you, you are mine
Yes you, you are mine
Oh you, you are mine
Yes you, you are mine


So please come back home
So I ask you, Jackie
Please come back home
So I ask you, Jackie
Please come back home, oh lord
Cos I've been a bachelor all my life
But I've been dating you


We've been in separate lands
And it does not feel so right
Because the Texas days
Don't mix with Kenya nights
When I see the Texas sun
You see the African stars
Wish I'd drive to the airport
And get you into my car
And you, you are mine
Yes you, you are mine
Oh you, you are mine
Yes you, you are mine


So please come back home
So I ask you, Jackie
Please come back home
So I ask you, Jackie
Please come back home
So I ask you, Jackie
Please come back home, oh yes
Sooner or later, you will be my wife
Yes I will marry you


So I ask you, Jackie
Please come back home....
