Elle King – Jackson

Elle King – Jackson Lyrics

Artist: Elle King
Song: Jackson

Mama’s dead and gone
Papa ain’t there
Mama’s dead and gone
Papa don’t care

Brother buried his hand
Pocket full of shotgun shells
He’s just a married man
Stuck in that whiskey well

What’s left of my backbone
Is building this broken home
Building it up just to leave
City will chain me

How could you blame me?
Not breaking the law to break free
So please take Jackson out of me
Sister lays her head

She’s just a lizard queen
She’s known too many beds
But she sure can sing
Your hopeless soul

Begging for more time
You’d rather die than get old
Too bad you ain’t killing kind
What’s left of my backbone

Is building this broken home
Building it up just to leave
City will chain me
How could you blame me?

Not breaking the law to break free
So please take Jackson out of me
Well, this country weighs me down
There’s nothing left for me in this town

These dreams I make before I wake
Well, I won’t waste no more time, hey
What’s left of my backbone
Is building this broken home

Building it up just to leave
City will chain me
How could you blame me?
Not breaking the law to break free

So please take Jackson out of me
Take Jackson out of me
Take Jackson out of me
