BOTH: We got married in a fever hotter than a pepper sprout
We been talkin` `bout Jackson
JOHNNY: Ever since the fire went out
I`m goin` to Jackson, I`m gonna mess around (yeah?)
Yeah, I`m goin` to Jackson, look out Jackson town
JUNE: Well, go on down to Jackson, go ahead and wreck your health (hmm)
Go play your hand, you big-talkin` man, make a big fool of yourself
Yeah, yeah, go to Jackson, but go comb that hair
JOHNNY: I`m gonna snowball Jackson
JUNE: Go ahead and see if I care
JOHNNY: When I breeze inta that city, the people gonna stoop and bow (ha ha)
All them women gonna make me teach `em what they don`t know how
I`m goin` to Jackson, ya turn-a loose-a my coat
`cause I`m goin` to Jackson
JUNE: Goodbye, that`s all she wrote
JUNE: They`ll laugh at you in Jackson (I doubt it)
And I`ll be dancin` on a pony keg
They`ll lead you `round that town like a scalded hound
With your tail tucked between your legs
Yeah, yeah, yeah, go to Jackson, you big-talkin` man
And I`ll be waitin` there in Jackson behind my *Japan* fan
BOTH: We got married in a fever hotter than a pepper sprout
We been talkin` `bout Jackson ever since the fire went ou-ou-out
Go to Jackson and that`s a natural fact
We`re goin` to Jackson, ain`t never comin` back
BOTH: We got married in a fever hotter than a pepper sprout
FADE
We been talkin` `bout Jackson
