highwaymen - jim, i wore a tie today lyrics
jim, jim, i wore a tie today
the first one that i ever wore
and you’d have said i looked like a dummy
out the dry goods store
oh jim, jim, the preacher said a lot of things
but i didn’t hear a word he said
my mind kept wanderin’ back down the trail
back to the good times we had
riding herd through sun and the rain
panning for gold on the cuff
we’ve did everything in the book i guess
and a lot that they never thought up
oh jim, jim, so you’re ridin’ on ahead
well if that’s how it’s going to be
when you reach those streets paved with gold
jim, stake a claim out for me
we did everything we could do for you jim
but your fever just wouldn’t go down
so we put you in the wagon jim
and this morning we got you back to town
but when we got here you were gone jim
and there wasn’t anything anybody could do
and they dressed you up in a fancy suit and a necktie
so today, we wore one too
riding herd through sun and the rain
panning for gold on the cuff
we’ve did everything in the book i guess
and a lot that they never thought up
oh jim, jim, so you’re ridin’ on ahead
well if that’s how it’s going to be
when you reach those streets paved with gold
jim, stake a claim out for me
