[Verse 1] Sky broke open on Jackson Square Cool rain dripping on my cowboy hair Plenty of money struttin’ on by But not a whole lotta “how-do-ya-do” pride [Chorus] Rainy day in Jackson, traffic standing still Half an hour a mile, Lord, it’s a test of will Elk horn arches shining silver in the din I’d leave this town faster if I could just get in [Verse 2] Parking spots rare as Catholic birth control I circled that block ’til it rattled my soul Big St. Bernard sippin’ beer by the curb Made more sense than the rest of this herd [Chorus] Rainy day in Jackson, traffic standing still Half an hour a mile, Lord, it’s a test of will Elk horn arches shining silver in the din I’d leave this town faster if I could just get in [Bridge] Folks with more money than manners to spare Cowboy hats bought with a credit card stare I’m people-watchin’ in the drizzle and rain Counting blessings I ain’t stuck here again [Chorus / Tag] Rainy day in Jackson, let that thunder roll A honky-tonk heart and a beer for my soul Elk horn arches shimmer, but I ain’t impressed Jackson’s a picture, but Cody’s the best
