If I Were Jackie lyrics

If I had married JFK
I would have lost my mind
Cause everybody seemed to know
How he spent 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 sedans
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 sedans
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 it s easy to sit here today and say what I would do
Yeah, but we ll probably never know
If it was her weakness or strength
That covered up the truth

If I were Jackie
I d got in one of those black sedans
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 seans
And left the secret service in the dust
