[Verse 1]
She was eighteen, had a California dream
Getting out was just a matter of time
He just turned twenty, making decent money
Driving L’s into railroad ties
Boy meets girl, girl’s plans changed that summer into a hell of a fall
No, they didn’t have it all together, but together they had it all
They had it all

[Verse 2]
Love did what it does, wasn’t even six months
Ain’t ever leaving, shining on her left hand

But that word so forbidden, forever together
Started running out of sand

[Pre-Chorus]
He was gone on the road, she was home all alone
That lonely took a toll on her heart
Came home early one night to surprise her
To find her lost in someone else’s arms

[Chorus]
This is the story of Jack and Jill
How their whole world came tumbling down
Heartbreak killed, Jill got on the pills
And Jack couldn’t get off that crown
They found their peace somewhere underneath
The roots of a sycamore tree
Yeah, Jack and Jill went downhill
And ended up on one in Tennessee
In Tennessee

[Bridge]
Everybody knows that he couldn’t let go of that bottle or what she’d done
He took his last sip, yeah, he finally quit that morning, he didn’t wake up
She took the news with the whites and the blues
Didn’t leave a note, there was no need

The preacher they used when they said, “I do,” is reading out of Psalm 23
23

[Chorus]
This is the story of Jack and Jill
How their whole world came tumbling down
Heartbreak killed, Jill got on the pills
And Jack couldn’t get off that crown
They found their peace somewhere underneath
The roots of a sycamore tree
Yeah, Jack and Jill went downhill
And ended up on one in Tennessee
In Tennessee, in Tennessee
