Jackie Got Married Lyrics - Wild Strawberries

Jackie got married on Valentine's Day 

It was a lovely wedding 

He met his bride on the interstate 

Seventeen miles from Connecticut 

At least that's what Jackie said 

Ruby told me she wished she were dead 

And I hold all these things in my heart 

Bobby got shot on Independence Day 

He was a fine young preacher 

Till they carved his heart away 

Ruby said he would want it that way 

I don't really know what to say 

And I hold all these things in my heart 

I've got no infant Messiah 

I've got no gabardine prose 

I've just got five hundred dollars 

That nobody knows about 

I'll give you my money 

I will sell you my soul 

If you would just hold these things 

If you would just hold these things in your heart
