Jerry Leiber

Leiber and Stoller were an American Grammy award-winning songwriting and record production duo, consisting of lyricist Jerome Leiber (April 25, 1933 – August 22, 2011) and composer Michael Stoller (born March 13, 1933). They wrote numerous standards for Broadway. Leiber and Stoller found success as the writers of such crossover hit songs as "Hound Dog" (1952) and "Kansas City" (1952). Later in the 1950s, particularly through their work with the Coasters, they created a string of ground-breaking hits—including "Young Blood" (1957), "Searchin'" (1957), and "Yakety Yak" (1958)—that used the humorous vernacular of teenagers sung in a style that was openly theatrical rather than personal.Leiber and Stoller wrote hits for Elvis Presley, including "Love Me" (1956), … more »

We got married in a fever hotter than a pepper sprout
We've been talking about Jackson ever since the fire went out
I'm going to Jackson I'm gonna mess around
Yeah, I’m going to Jackson, look out Jackson town

Well go on down to Jackson, go ahead and wreck your health
Go play your hand you big talking man, make a big fool of yourself
Yeah, go to Jackson, go comb your hair
Honey, I'm gonna snowball Jackson
See if I care

When I breeze into that city people gonna stoop and bow (Hah)
All them women gonna make me teach them what they don't know how
I'm going to Jackson you turn a loose a my coat
Cause I'm going to Jackson
Goodbye, that's all she wrote

But they'll laugh at you in Jackson
And I'll be dancing on a pony keg
They'll lead you around town like a scolded hound
With your tail tucked between your legs
Yeah, go to Jackson, you big talking man
And I'll be waiting in Jackson behind my J-Pan fan

Well we got married in a fever hotter than a pepper sprout
We've been talking 'bout Jackson ever since the fire went out
We’re going to Jackson and that's a fact
Yeah, we're going to Jackson, ain't never coming back

Mmm
Hotter than a pepper sprout
Mhm
Ever since the fire went out
We’re going to Jackson and that’s a fact
Yeah, we’re going to Jackson
Ain’t never coming back
