She was eighteen, had a California dream
Gettin' out was just a matter of time
He just turned twenty
Makin' decent money
Drivin' nails into railroad ties

Boy meets girl, girl's plans changed
That summer into a hell of a fall
Nah, they didn't have it all together
But together they had it all
They had it all

Love did what it does
Wasn't even six months
Ain't ever leavin' shinin' on her left hand
But that worse or for better
Forever together
Started runnin' out of sand

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

This is the story of Jack and Jill
How their whole world came tumblin' down
Heartbreak kills, 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

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

This is the story of Jack and Jill
How their whole world came tumblin' down
Heartbreak kills, 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
