[G] Look out, [C] Jackson town.
Well, go on down to Jackson.
Go ahead and wreck your house.
Go play your hand, you big talking man of [G] yourself.
Yeah, [F] go to Jackson.
Go comb [C] your hair.
Honey, I'm going to [F] snowball, Jackson.
[G] See if [C] I care.

All them women gonna make me teach them what they don't know how.
I'm [F] going to Jackson.
You turn loose in my [C] coat,
cause I'm [F] going to Jackson.
