Merle Haggard
Irma Jackson
[Verse 1]
I'd love to shout my feelings from a mountain high
To tell the world I love her and I will 'til I die
But we're living in a world that don't know love is colorblind
And that's why Irma Jackson can't be mine

[Verse 2]
I remember no one cared about us being 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
That tells me Irma Jackson can't be mine

[Chorus]
If loving Irma Jackson is a sin
Then I don't understand this crazy world we're living in
There's a mighty wall between us standing high
But I'll love Irma Jackson 'til I die

[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
She tеlls me she's decidеd that she'll go away
I guess it's right that she alone should have the final say
But in spite of her decision, forcing us to say goodbye
I'll still love Irma Jackson 'til I die
[Chorus]
If loving Irma Jackson is a sin
Then I don't understand this crazy world we're living in
There's a mighty wall between us standing high
But I'll love Irma Jackson 'til I die
I'll love Irma Jackson 'til I die
