JImmy got a round
And he made a little marking life
But he never got around
No, he never had a wife
But he spoke of a girl
He'd known his past
Though he never did mention her name
And no one asked
No one asked
(Chorus)
'Cause the bad men lied
And the hero's die
And people try to understand
Yeah, well it's been dry
You just can't get high
You think nobody knows it like you
Well that ain't true
That ain't true
Well Jimmy was a friend of mine
Taught me how to draw the line
Said you cross it on your own
When it comes your time
And when he pa**ed away
And we laid him in the grave
You know the priests weren't the only ones there
That said a prayed
Said a prayed
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
