Jackson, Tennessee

We got married in a fever, hotter than a pepper sprout

We've been talkin' 'bout Jackson, ever since the fire went out

I'm goin' to Jackson, I'm gonna mess around

Yeah, I'm goin' to Jackson, look out, Jackson town

We'll go on down to Jackson, go ahead and wreck your health

Go play your hand, you big-talkin' man an' make a big fool of yourself

Yeah, go to Jackson, go comb your hair

Honey, I'm gonna snowball Jackson, see if I care

When I breeze into that city, people gonna stoop and bow, ha

All them women gonna make me, teach 'em what they don't know how

I'm goin' to Jackson, you turn an' loosen my coat

'Cos I'm goin' to Jackson, "Goodbye", that's all she wrote

But they'll laugh at you in Jackson, and I'll be dancin' on a pony keg

They'll lead you 'round town like a scalded hound

With your tail tucked between your legs

Yeah, go to Jackson, you big-talkin' man

And I'll be waitin' in Jackson, behind my Japan fan

Well now, we got married in a fever, hotter than a pepper sprout

We've been talkin' 'bout Jackson, ever since the fire went out

I'm goin' to Jackson and that's a fact

Yeah, we're goin' to Jackson, ain't never comin' back

Well, we got married in a fever, hotter than a pepper sprout

Honey, we've been talkin' 'bout Jackson, ever since the fire went
