Jackson Lyrics by Carlene Carter

Anchored in Love: A Tribute To June Carter Cash

0

Yeah, 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

Well, now 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
I'm gonna snowball Jackson, see if I cared

When I breeze into that city, the 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, so turn and loosen my coat
Yeah, I'm goin' to Jackson, goodbye, that's all she wrote

Oh, 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, I'm goin'
I'll be waitin' in Jackson, behind my Jaypan Fan, I'll see you there

Well, we got married in a fever, hotter than a pepper sprout
Yeah, we've been talkin' 'bout Jackson, ever since the fire went
We goin' to Jackson and that's a fact
Yeah, we're goin' to Jackson, ain't never comin' back

Yeah, we got married in a fever, hotter than a pepper sprout
Yeah, we've been talkin' 'bout Jackson, ever since the fire went
We goin' to Jackson and that's a fact
Yeah, we're goin' to Jackson, ain't never comin' back

Nothin' but red tail high risin' dust, get goin', still goin', still goin'
Well, love me while you leavin' darlin', no, don't call my bluff
I can drive, you drive fast, I drive real fast, I know you do
You scared me to death, you kicked me on my toes, hey

Well, we got married in a fever, hotter than a pepper sprout
We've been talkin' 'bout Jackson, ever since the fire went
