Merle Haggard - Jackson lyrics

rate me

Merle Haggard feat. Theresa Haggard

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' down 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

Go on 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

And 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

'Cause I'm goin' down to Jackson

Goodbye, that's all she wrote

They'll laugh at you in Jackson

Well, I'ma dancin' on a Pony Keg

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

With your tail tucked between your legs

Come on to Jackson

You big-talkin' man

I'll be waitin' in Jackson

Behind my Jaypan Fan

Well, 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' down to Jackson

Ain't never comin' back

Well, we got married in a fever

Hotter than a pepper sprout

We've been talkin' 'bout Jackson

Ever since the fire went

I'm goin' to Jackson

You have to loosen my coat

I'm goin' down on to Jackson

Goodbye, that's all she wrote

Now we're goin' home
