I'd love to shout my feelin's from a mountain high |
|
Tell the world I love her and I will till I die |
|
There's no way the world will understand that love is colour blind |
|
That's why Irma Jackson can't be mine |
|
I remember when no one cared about us bein' friends |
|
We were only children and it really didn't matter then |
|
But we grew up too quickly in a world that draws a line |
|
Where they say Irma Jackson can't be mine |
|
If my lovin' Irma Jackson is a sin |
|
Then I don't understand this crazy world we're livin' in |
|
There's a muddy wall between us standin' high |
|
But I'll love Irma Jackson till Idie |
|
She tells me she's decided that she'll go away |
|
And I guess it's right but she alone should have the final say |
|
But in spite of her decision forcin' us to say goodbye |
|
I'll still love Irma Jackson till I die |
|
If my lovin' Irma Jackson is a sin |
|
Then I don't understand this crazy world we're livin' in |
|
It's a muddy wall between us standin' high |
|
But I'll love Irma Jackson till Idie |
