Elle King - Jackson lyrics

Momma's dead and gone Papa ain't there Momma's dead and gone And Papa don't care Brother buried his head Pocket full of shotgun shells It's just a merry man Stuck in that whiskey well [Chorus:] What's left of my backbone Is building this broken home Building it up Just to leave me Said he could change 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 little queen She don't do many things But she sure can sing Your hopeless soul Begging for more time Grab a dive and get old Too bad you ain't the k**ing kind [Chorus] For this country wears me down There's nothing left for me in this town These dreams are made Before I went For I won't waste no more time Yeah! [Chorus] Take Jackson out of me [2x]
