Jackson June Carter and Johnny Cash 1965 | (Riverboat 502 X) Elmer Sheffield, Jr. |
OPENER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face, grand square
*We got married in a fever, hotter than a pepper sprout
We've been talkin' 'bout Jackson, ever since the fire gone out
Allemande and weave
**To Jackson, we're gonna mess around
Promenade
**All the way back to Jackson
Hello, Jackson town
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*We'll go walkin' down to Jackson, go ahead and wreck your health
Go play your hand, you big-talkin' man, make a big fool of yourself
**To Jackson, go comb your hair
***I'm goin' down to Jackson
She said, "See if I care"
*When I breeze into that city, people gonna stop and bow
All them women gonna make me teach 'em what they don't know
**To Jackson, turn loose my coat
***All the way to Jackson
"Goodbye," that's all she wrote
FIGURE Plus, corner progression
Those heads promenade, go halfway around
While the sides do a right & left thru
Now the sides square thru go 4 hands around
When you meet 'em now, relay your deucey
To Jackson, ah, we'll mess around
Swing corner, promenade
To Jackson, hello Jackson town
TAG
I'm goin' down to Jackson
Hello, Jackson town
