BbWe got married in a fever, hotter than a pepper sprout
BbWe've been talkin' 'bout Jackson, ever since the fire went out
I'm goin' to EbJackson, gonna mess aBbround
Hey, I'm goin' to EbJackson, Fyou know I'm pleasure Bbbound

BbWell, you go on, my sweet daddy, go ahead and wreck your health
BbPlay your hand like a lover man and make a big fool of yourself
Go on to EbJackson, comb your Bbhair
Gotta snowball EbJackson, Fsee if I Bbcare
[Verse]
BbWhen I breeze into that city, people gonna scrape and bow
BbAll them women gonna beg me to teach 'gm what they don't know how
I'm goin' down to EbJackson, turn loose my Bbcoat
Hey, I'm goin' to EbJackson, F"Bye-bye," that's all she Bbwrote

I'll be waitin' in EbJackson, Fbehind my Japan Bbfan
