Jimmy Dean "Jim, I Wore a Tie Today" |
(Cindy Walker) (Jim, Jim) Jim, I did everything I could do But your fever just wouldn't die down So I tied your horse to the wagon And last night I brought you to town. When I got you there Jim, you's gone And there was nothin' nobody could do So I bought you a suit and a tie Jim And today I wore one too. Jim, I wore a tie today The first one that I ever wore Imagine you'd've said that I looked like a dummy Out of some dry goods store. Jim, they said a lot of things I couldn't tell you one thing they said Somehow my mind kept wanderin' Wanderin' down back that trail back to the times that we've had. One thing 'bout you old friend Is side by side sun or rain How many times pannin' gold on the cuff We did about everything in the book I guess And prob'ly some things that they never read or thought up. Well, Jim you're ridin' on ahead And I I guess that's the way that's gotta be But Jim when you reach them streets paved with gold Nobody stake a claim out for me. (Jim, hmm, Jim) Jim, I wore a tie today... Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
