Jacky Don Tucker

[Verse 1] Jacky Don Tucker was my daddy's little brother And at seventeen he jumped the fence He joined a rock 'n' roll band, got a tattoo on his hand Granny said he never had a lick of sense Cause by the time he turned seven he was a stealing watermelons Playing house with the girl next door Drinking muscadine wine by the time he was nine Sneaking out and smoking cigarettes under the porch [Chorus] He was a melon stealing Cop-a-feeling Daredevil fool A do-it-anyway in Playing hooky from school A water tower poet class of '73 He'd say by God you better know it if you're running with me Cause I'm skinny dipping finger flipping son of a gun Play by the rules You're going to miss all the fun [Verse 2] He was always drag racing and he kept the sheriff chasing But they never caught ole Jacky Don Cause he was nobody's fool, the definition of cool He even cut a donut on the courthouse lawn He created quite a scandal that the locals couldn't handle When he took up with the preacher's baby girl They bought a new double wide and on their wedding night Aunt Jenny went to rocking Uncle Jacky Don's world [Chorus][X2] [Outro] Play by the rules You're going to miss all the fun
