Artist/Band: Jimmy Dean
Lyrics for Song: Jim, I Wore a Tie Today
Lyrics for Album: Jimmy Dean Is Here! [RCA Victor] [1967]



(Cindy Walker)



(Jim, Jim) Jim, I did everything I could do

But your fever just wouldn't die down

So I tied your horse to the wagon

And last night I brought you to town.



When I got you there Jim, you's gone

And there was nothin' nobody could do

So I bought you a suit and a tie Jim

And today I wore one too.



Jim, I wore a tie today

The first one that I ever wore

Imagine you'd've said that I looked like a dummy

Out of some dry goods store.



Jim, they said a lot of things

I couldn't tell you one thing they said

Somehow my mind kept wanderin'

Wanderin' down back that trail back to the times that we've had.



One thing 'bout you old friend

Is side by side sun or rain

How many times pannin' gold on the cuff

We did about everything in the book I guess

And prob'ly some things that they never read or thought up.



Well, Jim you're ridin' on ahead

And I I guess that's the way that's gotta be

But Jim when you reach them streets paved with gold

Nobody stake a claim out for me.



(Jim, hmm, Jim) Jim, I wore a tie today...
