[Verse 1]
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome my singing partner
June Carter Cash
[Verse 2]
We got married in a fever
Hotter than a pepper sprout
We've been talkin' 'bout Jackson
Ever since the fire went out
[Verse 3]
I'm going to Jackson
I'm going mess around
Yeah, I'm going to Jackson
Look out Jackson Town
[Verse 4]
Well, go on down to Jackson
Yeah, 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
No honey, I'm gonna snowball Jackson (Uh)
See if I care
[Verse 5]
Yeah, when I breeze into that city
People gonna scrape and bow
All them women gonna make me
Teach 'em what they don't know how
Oh, I'm going to Jackson
You turn to loosen my coat
Yeah, I'm going to Jackson
"Goodbye", that's all she wrote (That's all she wrote)
[Verse 6]
But they'll laugh at you in Jackson (Woohoo)
And I'll dancin' on a Pony Keg
They'll lead you 'round town
Like a scolded hound
With your tail tucked between your legs
Yeah, go to Jackson
You big-talkin' man (You big talkin' man)
But I'll be waitin' in Jackson
Behind my Japan fan
[Verse 7]
Well, now we got married in a fever
Oh, hotter than a pepper sprout (Pepper sprout)
We've been talkin' 'bout Jackson
Ever since the fire went out
I'm going to Jackson
And that's a fact
Yeah, we're going to Jackson
Ain't never comin' back
[Verse 8]
(Ooh) We got married in a fever
Hotter than a pepper sprout
[Verse 9]
Thank you, thank you very much
It's exciting to be back, working with John again
I don't know if he got into tellin' you all of this or not
But see, we have been, like, for the past several months
We, we've not really been workin'
Because he went to have his tooth pulled
And, they pulled his tooth, but they pulled his jaw too
I mean they broke his jaw, you see
They didn't break it just a little bit
They broke it right smack-dab in two
And then the most wonderful thing happened
They wired his jaws together
All those things I was wantin' to get said
Never had a chance
Boy, I said 'em for about four months
