Jacksonville

Lyrics

Jacksonville ©2014 Greg Lambert Trouble came last night I could cut and run Or stay and fight Trouble came my way Straight from her job making license plates In the Sunshine State Trouble at my door In the dress she wore The night before Trouble came to town On a greyhound bus For another round For another round Chorus She laughed, said are you in If you play this game You gotta show some skin You want to leave but you never will You'd miss the smell of coffee and the paper mill At the Last Resort Motel in Jacksonville Bridge A broken neon sign The steady hum of a power line A silhouette of a girl I knew With nothing left to lose Trouble came last night I could cut and run Or stay and fight Trouble came around Gonna shake things up In a Southern town In this Southern town Chorus
