1208 - Jimmy Lyrics
JimmyIt started out with a few misfortunesHis daddy ran off with some broad from the motownWhen momma said we're leavin tomorrowJimmy already had his things togetherSo many days of thinking of the pastThe girl he left behind and hangin out in thefree streetsSomehow Jimmy had survived his reflectionsThe broken glass in his hands, a noose before himSaid he did it beforeHe's gonna do it againGive him a fix and a bottle and he won't complainUntil he's blue in the faceJimmy's the leader of a losin' raceHey Jimmy did you learn your lessonYou always know what you were missin'Hey Jimmy did you solve the problemJust a kid with no directionSome people say it was fright that drove himBut Jimmy knows who's really scared of differenceThe whipping boy won't take his beatingIt only left them alone to their thinkingOf how he knew what they could never knowAnd he would live and learn to be himselfthrough his mistakesWatch and laugh, pretend they were okayWaiting for things to change is just another daySaid he did it beforeHe's gonna do it againGive him a fix or a bottle and he won't complainUntil he's blue in the faceJimmy's the leader of a losing raceHey Jimmy did you learn your lessonYou always knew what you were missin'Hey Jimmy did you solve the problemJust a kid with no directionHey Jimmy don't you walk awayWe'll look at life according to meYou're my life support auto biographyHey Jimmy take a look insideLet's take a chance, enjoy the rideImpressions don't dieNo one knew your storyHey Jimmy did you learn you lessonYou always knew what you were missin' (Jimmy)Hey Jimmy did you solve the problemJust a kid with no direction (Jimmy)Hey Jimmy did you learn your lessonYou always knew what you were missin' (Jimmy)Hey Jimmy did you solve the problemJust a kid with no direction (Jimmy)Hey Jimmy now your free
