[00:00.00]	作曲 : Yvonne Verroca
[00:21.18]	Jimmy Stokes came from Alabam'
[00:24.24]	with just the shirt on his back
[00:27.54]	But with a big determination
[00:30.69]	to make it big and never come back
[00:33.60]	He said goodbye to his girl Sue
[00:37.26]	and left the farm to see what he could do
[00:40.20]	Came east to the big, hard city
[00:43.56]	saw the sights, lord have pity
[00:59.40]	Every move he made seemed to be right
[01:02.88]	made some good friends, he became tight
[01:05.94]	Always played it cool, he was never a bore
[01:09.24]	kept his eyes open always knowin' the score
[01:12.12]	He waited for his break and took his prize
[01:15.42]	and as you would assume, he was on the rise
[01:18.57]	And with a little help from his friends
[01:21.78]	Jimmy became a business head
[01:37.23]	Now Jimmy Stokes he was selling cokes
[01:40.26]	and all the pretty ladies in town
[01:42.96]	He ran his business and was discreet,
[01:46.05]	paid every cop on his beat
[01:49.50]	He rides a big, custom-tone, purple Cadillac
[01:52.44]	with his name written on the back
[01:55.41]	If you can't get it and you don't know
[01:59.13]	all you have to do is ask Jimmy Stokes
[02:51.78]	Pretty soon power went to his head
[02:54.54]	he started to treat his friends bad
[02:57.84]	One night while a big bash at his pad,
[03:00.69]	a knock on the door, the F.B.I. said,
[03:03.21]	"Come on Jimmy let's go back to Alabama
[03:07.41]	with a ball and chain doin' time in the hole,
[03:46.02]	you are on the chain,
[03:47.16]	come on Jimmy"
