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.
Goin' to mess around.
I'm goin' to Jackson
You know I'm pleasure bound.
Well you go on down to Jackson
go ahead and wreck your health.
Go play your hand like a lover man
and make a big fool of yourself.
Go play your hand like a lover man
and make a big fool of yourself.
Go on to Jackson
but go comb that hair.
I'm gonna snowball Jackson.
Go head and see if I care.
Breeze into that city
people gonna stoop and bow.
all them women gonna beg me.
Teach'em what they don't know how.
I'm goin' to Jackson.
Turn loose my code.
I'm goin' to Jackson "good-bye"
that's all she wrote.
When they laugh at you in Jackson
I'll be dancing' on the pony keg.
Then I'll lead you' round town
like a scolded hound
with your tail tucked between your legs.
So go on down to Jackson
you big talkin' man.
I'll be waiting there in Jackson.
Behind my Japan fan.
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 matter of fact
we are goin' to Jackson and never coming back.
