[C]
We got married in a fever, hotter than a pepper sprout.
We've been talking about Jackson ever since the fire went out.
I'm [F] going to Jackson, I'm gonna mess [C]
around.
Yeah, I'm [F] going to Jackson, [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, make love [G] yourself.
[Am] Yeah, [F] go to Jackson, go comb [C] your hair.
Honey, I'm gonna
[F] snowball Jackson.
[G] See if [C] I care.
When I breeze into that city, people gonna stoop and bow.
All them women gonna make me teach them what they don't know how.
I'm [F] going to Jackson, you turn loose [C] in my coat.
Cause I'm [F] going to Jackson.
[G]
Goodbye, that's [C] all she wrote.
But till I find you in Jackson, and I'll be dancing on a pony cage.
They'll lead you around town like a scalded hound with your tail between [Gm] your legs.
Yeah, [F] go to Jackson, you big [C] talking man.
And I'll be waiting [F] in Jackson [G] behind my J [C]-Pan plan.
[G] Well now we got mad at a fever, hotter [C] than a pepper sprout.
We've been talking about Jackson ever since the fire went [Am] out.
[G] I'm [F] going to Jackson.
And that's a [C]
fact.
Yeah, [G] we're [F] going to Jackson.
[G] Ain't never coming [C]
back.
Well now we got mad at a fever, hotter than a pepper sprout.
Honey, we've been talking about Jackson
