Jimmy Brown could take anything and make music
Anything that he found around the place
He took a limb from a tree and made a whistle
And this is the melody he played
[Whistle solo]
Jimmy took an old beat up wash tub
And a pitchfork that he used for pitching hay
He tied 'em both together with a clothesline
You ought to heard old Jimmy play the bass
Some people say he took an old cigar box
And a wire from a screen door that was torn
Everybody thought old Jim was crazy
But that's how the guitar was born
And he played...
[Guitar solo]
The day they took old Jimmy to the graveyard
Everybody came from miles around
A little band was playing Jimmy's music
As they laid him in the cold, cold ground
And they played...
Jimmy Brown was written by Dorsey Burnette & Joe Osborne.
