VERSE 1
Well JDimmy played harmonica in the pGub where I was boDrn
He plaDyed it from the night-time to the peGaceful early mAorn
He sooGthed souls of psychos and the mDen who had the hoArn
and they alDl looked very haGppy in the mAorninDg
VERSE 2
But JiDmmy didn't like his place Gin this world of Dours
Where theD elephant man broke strong men's necks when hGe'd had too many pAowers
So sGad to see the grieving of the pDeople he was leAaving
And he tDook the road for goGd knows in the mAorniDng
CHORUS
We waDlked him to the staGtion in the raDin
We kiDssed him as we puGt him on the trAain
And we sGang him a soDng of times long goGne
though we knDew that we'd be sAeeing him agaDin A
SDad to say I must be on my way
so buGy me beer and whDiskey 'cause I'm goAing far away
I'd liDke to think I'll be returning when I can
to the greaGtest little boDozer and to SaAlly McLeDnnane
VERSE 3
The yDears passed by the times had changed I gGrew to be a mDan
I leaDrned to love the virtues of sweet SGally McLenAnane
I toGok the jeers and drank the beers and I crawDled back home at daAwn
And Dended up a baGrman in the moArninDg
VERSE 4
I plDayed the pump and took the hump and wGatered whiskey Ddown
I taDlked of whores and horses to the mGen who drank the bArown
I heGard them say that Jimmy's making mDoney far awaAy
Some peDople left for heGaven without wAarninDg
CHORUS
We waDlked him to the staGtion in the raDin
We kiDssed him as we puGt him on the trAain
And we sGang him a soDng of times long goGne
though we knDew that we'd be sAeeing him agaDin A
SDad to say I must be on my way
so buGy me beer and whDiskey 'cause I'm goAing far away
I'd liDke to think I'll be returning when I can
to the greaGtest little boDozer and to SaAlly McLeDnnane
INTRO
VERSE 5
When JDimmy came back home he was surprGised that they were gDone
He aDsked me all the details of the traGin that they went Aon
Some pGeople they are scared to croak but JDimmy drank untAil he choked
And tDook the road for hGeaven in the mAorninDg
CHORUS
We waDlked him to the staGtion in the raDin
We kiDssed him as we puGt him on the trAain
And we sGang him a soDng of times long goGne
though we knDew that we'd be sAeeing him agaDin A
SDad to say I must be on my way
so buGy me beer and whDiskey 'cause I'm goAing far away
I'd liDke to think I'll be returning when I can
to the greaGtest little boDozer and to SaAlly McLeDnnane
