The First Mrs Jones - Porter Wagoner[00:00:00]
Her real first name was Betty but I'd rather just forget it[00:00:09]
So I'll call her the First Mrs Jones[00:00:17]
We were married in September and it lasted till November[00:00:24]
Then one day she just took out on her own[00:00:32]
I followed her to Savannah New Orleans and then Atlanta[00:00:39]
Every day I begged her to come home[00:00:48]
Pretty soon I started drinking tryin' hard to keep from thinking[00:00:55]
Just how much I loved the First Mrs Jones[00:01:03]
It was cold and dark one morning[00:01:12]
Just before the day was dawning[00:01:16]
When I staggered from a tavern to a phone[00:01:18]
When she picked up her receiver[00:01:23]
I said you're gonna come back or either[00:01:25]
They're gonna be calling you the Late Mrs Jones[00:01:27]
I put a pistol in my jacket stumbled out and hailed a taxi[00:01:33]
I told the taxidriver to take me to her home[00:01:38]
I remember walkin' proudly everybody said I yelled out loudly[00:01:44]
Come on out or I'm gonna come in Mrs Jones[00:01:50]
Then next thing I recall was walking to the forest[00:01:56]
Lookin' for a place to hide her bones[00:02:01]
I dug and dug for hours and then I planted flowers[00:02:05]
Right on the top of the First Mrs Jones[00:02:10]
Did my little story scare you[00:02:17]
Oh I can see cause I'm so near you[00:02:19]
Little beads of persperation dot your clothes[00:02:23]
Aren't you sorry now that you left me[00:02:29]
Really now doesn't you wanna come go with me[00:02:32]
After all you are the Second Mrs Jones[00:02:36]
