Lyrics Jimmie's Song - John D. Loudermilk

Jimmie's Song

Jimmy played the guitar, longed to be a big star,
But Jimmy didn’t have a song to sing
Jimmy sang sweet and Jimmy looked neat,
But Jimmy didn’t have a song to sing
Until one day Jimmy ran into
A little songwriter named Mary Lou,
She had a brand new tune he dug,
And all at once they fell in love,
Now Jimmy’s singing
Jimmy’s song, ev’rybody’s crazy 'bout it,
Jimmy’s song, they’re buying lots of records of it,
Jimmy’s song, all the girls are flipin’over
Jimmy’s song, whoo, whoo, whoo…
Jimmy’s song, whoo, whoo, whoo.
Jimmy’s song, written by Mary Lou
Whooo, whoo, whoo…
Now, Jimmy’s got a Cadillac, Mary’s got a Cadillac
And a great big wedding ring
They’ve got a cottage out in the country
With a swimming pool and everything
But that ain’t all that they have got
'Cause they’ve got a brand new little tot
Mary Lou thinks it’s awfully sweet
When Jimmy rocks Jimmy Jr. to sleep, singing
Jimmy’s song, lul-a-lul-a-lul-a-bye
Jimmy’s song, lul-a-lul-a-lul-a-bye
Jimmy’s song, lul-a-lul-a, don’t cha cry
Jimmy’s song, whoo, whoo, whoo…
Jimmy’s song, goo, goo, goo, goo
Jimmy’s song, written by Mary Lou
