"July Jackson" lyrics

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

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

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

July Jackson
July Jackson
July Jackson
