June Carter Cash - Jackson

We got married in a fever,
hotter than a pepper sprout,
We've been talkin' about 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.

Well, go on down to Jackson
go ahead and wreck your health
Go play your hand you big-talkin' man,
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. (Hah!)
All them women gonna make me,
teach 'em what they don't know how,

I'm goin' to Jackson,
you turn-a loose-a 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 Jaypan Fan,

Well now, we got married in a fever,
hotter than a pepper Sprout,
We've been talkin' about Jackson,
ever since the fire went.

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'
And we've been talkin' about Jackson,
ever since the fire went - 
We got married in a fever,
