I was born seven miles out of Jackson In a house Daddy built with his hands I grew up helping Dad make a living Farming that poor Jackson land And at night we'd sit on the front porch And we'd sing those old gospel songs And you'd think the way Mon and Dad raised me That I could have never done wrong (Chorus) Take me back to Jackson That's where I belong Take me back to Jackson That's the one place I feel at home I fell in love with a girl from the city Then we moved to the city to stay She just laughed at me when I told her That I'd change my poor Jackson ways When I saw him take her in his arms I lost control and you know the rest May God forgive me for what I've done And the warden grant me this request Chorus: Aus Songtexte Mania
