Poor Little Jimmy
Recorded by Hank Snow
Written by Don Wayne

C                            F
Well poor little Jimmy was a real cool kid
   C                                  G7
He had all the girls a flipping their lids
        F                            G7             C     G7
Well he parked in the dark neath the great big moon above
        C                        F
Then he met a little girl and he took her for a ride
    C                       G7
She turned on her charm and Jimmy tried and tried 
   F                         G7                   C
To fight off you but he just couldn't win against love 

F                   G7
Poor little Jimmy's done gone and done 
   F                            C
He tried to out run love but he couldn't out run her
   G7                        C
He tried to out do cupid but cupid out done him
    F                      G7               C
Yes poor little Jimmy done gone and fell in love

                              F
Now she said little Jimmy why don’t we go steady 
   C                                G7
He said I’m sorry but I ain’t quite ready
          F               G7                     C  G7
To settle down cause I’ve gotta lot of living to do
         C                      F
Then she snuggled up closer and breathed a sigh
      C                   G7
Jimmy kissed her lips and then he realized
     F                       G7                    C
That his good old loving and leaving days were all through

Repeat #2

                         F
Now poor little Jimmy he ain’t quite the same 
    C                          G7
His young life’s has had a big change
             F               G7              C  G7
He don’t get around the town like he used to do
     C                           F
Well he used to be king till the queen stepped in
    C                    G7
His troubles began along about then
    F                  G7                      C
Now she’s showing poor little Jimmy a thing or two

Repeat #2
