Artist/Band: Waylon Jennings
Lyrics for Song: Jim, I Wore A Tie Today
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Waylon Jennings



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
