Jim, I Wore a Tie Today Lyrics
(Cindy Walker)
Jim Jim, I wore a tie today
The first one that I ever wore
And you'd have said that I looked like a dummy
Out of a drygood store
Oh Jim Jim, they said a lot of things
But I didn't hear a word, they said
My mind kept wanderin' off down the trail
Back to the good times, we had
Ridin' hurt in the sun and the rain
And in for gold on the cuff
We did everything in the books, I guess
And a lot that they'd never dreamed of
Oh Jim Jim, so you're ridin' on ahead
Well, if that's how it's goin' to be
When you reach those streets, paved with gold
Jim stake a claim out for me
-Solo & Humming-
Ridin' hurt in the sun and the rain
And in for gold on the cuff
We did everything in the books, I guess
And a lot that they'd never dreamed of
Oh Jim Jim, so you're ridin' on ahead
Well, if that's how it's goin' to be
When you reach those streets, paved with gold
Jim stake a claim out for me
