"July Jackson" lyrics - CHARLEY CROCKETT

[Chorus:]
July Jackson
She was a wife with a couple of kids
There's a story going 'round
About what that woman did

Somebody told me
That she took her husband's life
Said she did it with a smile
And the twistin' of a knife

July Jackson
Seems it wasn't long ago
That I saw the man she loved
With a girl I didn't know

A short time later
That young girl, she came up dead
And it looked awful suspicious
But that's not how the paper read

[Hook:]
July Jackson
July Jackson

Why just this mornin'
They brought July Jackson down
Where they started with their questions
In front of this entire town
Where I was standing
I saw pretty July's face
And she said she wasn't sorry
That she put him in his place

[Chorus:]
July Jackson
She was a wife with a couple of kids
There's a story going 'round
About what that woman did

[Outro:]
July Jackson
July Jackson
July Jackson
