Jimmy was a local boy But he's seen much more than the change in the weather Sitting in a uniform of a 3 piece suit And the ribbons from his past Looking through the little boy At the bar with the mouth who thinks he's clever Now dreaming of a day that he got home from war To his childhood sweetheart Now he don't need anyone There's no one there for him Just a feeling of an empty place deteriorating Jimmy was a local boy But he's seen much more then I'm bound to ever A member of a dying breed That has sat in wait as it all just falls apart Dreaming of a that's oh so long ago He can't remember right There was a time a man could still be a man And be proud to use his heart Now he don't need anyone There's no one there for him There was really only one now he misses how she sound He frowns, line 'em up and he puts them down It's sad this town seems to fail to appreciate the man Now he don't need anyone There's no one there for him Cause Jimmy's thick skinned And a long long time ago When he could break a heart There was really only one now he misses how she sound He frowns, line 'em up and he puts them down It's sad this town seems to fail to appreciate the man |
