Lyrics
Jimmy
Now listen to me.
I?m gonna tell you a little story.
And it?s all good.
There was a man. Guitar in his hand.
Played with soul. People said "Rock And Roll. Sown by the hand of God, over one billion sold. There was never a doubt. Had the power of soul.
(chorus) Jimmy, Everybody say his name.
Jimmy.His claim to fame.
Jimmy. With the use of a small band.
Jimmy.He would rule the land.
With the use of a small band, with a three piece band; he put it in your face with guitar, drums and bass. Now what was his name? His birth right to fame? Jimmy, everybody knew it, will rise to claim his fame.
(chorus) Everybody saying Jimmy.
Jimmy. Around the world they?re singing Jimmy.Jimmy. Around the world they?re singing Jimmy. And in the name, his name was being reigned.
Once again, Once again. Say it again.
Oh my friend. I said "I like it."
I said " I need it." Jimmy, Jimmy. Heeeyyy!
Infectious groove from Texas, London and Rio. The world would know this powerful trio. With a voice rough but smooth, guitar bound to groove, when we heard the sound we all had to move.
Hey, hey Jimmy. Bop and dance.
Jimmy. Put you in a trance
Oh Jimmy. Again sing his name
Jimmy (X times)
