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 stealin' watermelons Playin' house with the girl next door Drinkin' muscadine wine by the time he was nine Sneakin' out and smokin' cigarettes under the porch
He was a melon stealin' Cop-a-feelin' Daredevil fool A do-it-anywayin' Playin' hooky from school A water tower poet class of '73 He'd say by God you better know it if you're runnin' with me 'cause I'm skinny dippin' finger flippin' son of a gun Play by the rules You're gonna miss all the fun
He was always drag racin' and he kept the sheriff chasin' 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 rockin' Uncle jacky don's world
He was a melon stealin' Cop-a-feelin' Daredevil fool A do-it-anywayin' Playin' hooky from school A water tower poet class of '73 He'd say by God you better know it if you're runnin' with me 'cause I'm skinny dippin' finger flippin' son of a gun Play by the rules You're gonna miss all the fun
