Jackson Ain't a Very Big Town

Tammy Wynette · The First Songs of the First Lady [Epic] [1973]

(Vic McAlpin)



Tonight at nine we get married

Friends all say it's a shame and disgrace

That he's loved every woman in Jackson

But Jackson ain't a very big place.



Tomorrow we'll go walking

I'll count each one with a tear on her face

Then I'll know just how many think I'm lucky

'Cause Jackson ain't a very big place.



Yes, Jackson is a mighty small town

Where gossips and rumors go round

But the gossips are the ones he turned down

And Jackson ain't a very big town.

Yes, Jackson is a mighty small town

Where gossips and rumors go round

But the gossips are the ones he turned down

And Jackson ain't a very big town...
