Jimmy James

There was a soul named Jimmy
I once knew
Brown liquor for eyes
When he made his debut

He showered in hope
But he always smelled of regret
Concealed in the smoke of a single
Cigarette

He said he would answer to many names
But said he would never ever go back to being James

Jimmy would go days while he gazed
In the future's past
His body was free
But his mind wasn't built to last

He said he would answer to many names
But said he would never ever go back to being James

He said he would answer to many names
But said he would never ever go back to being James

There was a soul named Jimmy
I once knew
Brown liquor for eyes
When he made his debut
