(Tribute To Jim Croce) |
|
Give him a soft guitar to play what he choose |
|
He ain't got no fancy chords |
|
Only got his blues |
|
Poor happy Jimmy |
|
I didn't know him very well but he was with me |
|
And I won't take a dime just to make it rhyme |
|
Cause I cried and cried the day he died |
|
Poor happy Jimmy |
|
Give him sweet melodies he sing with all he has |
|
He got a funky paraphrase |
|
It sound like good time jazz |
|
Poor happy Jimmy |
|
I didn't know him very well but he was with me |
|
And I won't put the blame on the aeroplane |
|
But I boo-hoo'd on the day he flew |
|
Poor happy Jimmy |
|
I wonder why |
|
That I can't forget all the things you said about your life and times |
|
You set a spell inside |
|
Oh James your soft guitar it make me feel to cry |
|
The sole consolation is |
|
A good man never dies |
|
God bless you Jimmy |
|
I love you with all my heart so deep within me |
|
And you won't see the end of your lonely friend |
|
Cause I'll pray and pray for you every day |
|
Poor happy Jimmy |
|
Poor happy Jimmy .... |
