- Widow Jones LyricsAsk any young man in this town who is over thirteen
To tell you about the things and places he's seen
If he tells you somethin' bout women you haven't known
You can attribute his knowledge of anatomy to widow Jones
Well Jones-y was a gogo girl a little while before she married Sam
He fell into the river Jones-y said that's water over the dam
You say we oughta leave these matters to the good disgression of the law
But when you have a shape like widow Jones you have a lotta friends at City Hall
[ dobro ]
Well I don't bring her up because I think we should put her down
I just wanna shed some light on the truth in this town
These boys've learned things they couldn't've learned in our schools
And their parents can relax in knowin' that they're not all out in shootin' pool
Yeah Jones-y was a gogo girl...
Yeah the widow's got a lot friends at City Hall
To tell you about the things and places he's seen
If he tells you somethin' bout women you haven't known
You can attribute his knowledge of anatomy to widow Jones
Well Jones-y was a gogo girl a little while before she married Sam
He fell into the river Jones-y said that's water over the dam
You say we oughta leave these matters to the good disgression of the law
But when you have a shape like widow Jones you have a lotta friends at City Hall
Well I don't bring her up because I think we should put her down
I just wanna shed some light on the truth in this town
These boys've learned things they couldn't've learned in our schools
And their parents can relax in knowin' that they're not all out in shootin' pool
Yeah Jones-y was a gogo girl...
Yeah the widow's got a lot friends at City Hall

When we think about what all of this might truly mean, the Jeannie C. Riley's 'Widow Jones' theme song focuses on a woman who was a go-go girl reminiscing her past then marrying Sam. Jonesy, the main character, is described as so beautiful and flirtatious that the handsome and cultured men of the town were all after her. She had the upper hand In the social ladder and had made nice with the powers that were, hence 'a lotta friends at City Hall'. The song inadvertently shows these dynamics by pointing out that ladies' looks have at times played an enormous role in determining how society perceives and treats them. Widow jones lyrics mainly revolve around love, empowerment, reflection, social commentary, and the reflection of societal issues. The song, however, does that simultaneously, by accentuating the significance of local gossip and reputation, truth and perception, social dynamics and influence. The lyrics touch on some adult themes concerning relationships, but they are not crude, violent, or supported by drug use. Thus, parental guidance is strongly advised due to the hints of adult situations.
