If I had married JFK
|
I would have lost my mind
|
'Cause everybody seemed to know
|
How he pent his leisure time
|
Well I guess that things were different then
|
A wife just turned her head
|
But do you think she cried
|
When the President didn't make it home to bed
|
How did she survive
|
That kind of life
|
|
If I were Jackie
|
I'd got in one of those black sudans
|
And left the secret service in the dust
|
If I were Jackie
|
I'd of told Marylin you can keep that man
|
'Cause he's gonna cheat on you like he cheated on us.
|
|
She kept on facing forward and she held her head up high
|
Even when she smelled a strange perfume
|
She stood there by his side
|
She'd smile and she would wave
|
Like she had grown accustomed to
|
The picture of perfection like a debutante would do
|
Did she ever ask him
|
Where the hell have you been?
|
|
If I were Jackie
|
I'd got in one of those black sudans
|
And left the secret service in the dust
|
If I were Jackie
|
I'd of told Marylin you can keep that man
|
'Cause he's gonna cheat on you like he cheated on us.
|
|
(spoken)
|
Well i guess its easy to sit here today and say what I would do
|
Yeah, but we'll probably never know
|
If it was her weakness or or strength
|
That covered up the truth
|
|
If I were Jackie
|
I'd got in one of those black sudans
|
And left the secret service in the dust
|
If I were Jackie
|
I'd of told Marylin you can keep that man
|
'Cause he's gonna cheat on you like he cheated on us.
|
|
If I were Jackie
|
I'd got in one of those black sudans
|
And left the secret service in the dust
