Waylon Jennings Lyrics for Song: Jim, I Wore A Tie Today
 Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Waylon Jennings
 
 
 
 35191>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
