Twenty Dollar Jim Written and recorded by Marty Robbins
G Once a week he’d come into the nightclub C G And he’d walk across the dance floor to a table just for two
You could see that he was lonelier than lonely A7 D7 And he could write a book on being blue
G Well he’d order up a single for his baby C G Then order up a double just for him
Well he drank a lot but he paid real good for love songs C D7 G And the band just called him Twenty Dollar Jim
About five years ago he lost his baby C G He never said just why or where she went
But the way he mixed his whiskey with his memories A7 D7 And left him with his mind about half bent
G The band could see him going through the motion C G A talking to someone who’d gone away
With eyes so sad and his voice choked with emotion C D7 G He’d stagger to the bandstand and he’d say
C Singer won’t you sing me back to baby G D7 Help me make it through this crazy world of mine G C Here’s a twenty for a love song for my baby G D7 G Singer won’t you sing me back to baby one more time
Well today I saw his picture in the paper C G And the story read he drank himself to death
But the story never mentioned his baby A7 D7 Of how he spoke her name with every breath
G In the name of love I bought some pretty flowers C G Then I took them down and left them there with him
And it made me sad to think he’s gone forever C D7 G When I said goodbye to Twenty Dollar Jim
C Singer won’t you sing me back to baby G D7 Help me make it through this crazy world of mine G C Here’s a twenty for a love song for my baby G D7 G Singer won’t you sing me back to baby one more time
D7 C G Singer won’t you sing me back to baby one more time
