Poor little Jimmy Lyrics

C F
Well poor little Jimmy was a real cool kid
C G7
He had all the girls a flipping their lids
F G7 C G7
Well he parked in the dark neath the great big moon above
C F
Then he met a little girl and he took her for a ride
C G7
She turned on her charm and Jimmy tried and tried
F G7 C
To fight off you but he just couldn't win against love

F G7
Poor little Jimmy's done gone and done
F C
He tried to out run love but he couldn't out run her
G7 C
He tried to out do cupid but cupid out done him
F G7 C
Yes poor little Jimmy done gone and fell in love
F
Now she said little Jimmy why don't we go steady
C G7
He said I'm sorry but I ain't quite ready
F G7 C G7
To settle down cause I've gotta lot of living to do
C F
Then she snuggled up closer and breathed a sigh
C G7
Jimmy kissed her lips and then he realized
F G7 C
That his good old loving and leaving days were all through

F
Now poor little Jimmy he ain't quite the same
C G7
His young life's has had a big change
F G7 C G7
He don't get around the town like he used to do

Well he used to be king till the queen stepped in
C G7
His troubles began along about then
F G7 C
Now she's showing poor little Jimmy a thing or two
