Forbidden Jimmy - John Prine



Forbidden Jimmy

Has got a mighty sore tooth

From biting too many dimes

In a telephone booth

He's got half of his bootlace

Tied to the dial

Thank you operator

For getting Jimmy to smile



Call out the Coast Guard

Screamed the Police

Forbidden Jimmy

He's got three water skis

He put two on his wavelength

And gave one to his girl

She's a mighty fine person

It's a mighty fine world





Chorus

I'm gonna make all your sorrws bright

Set your soul free

I'll see you tomorrow night

If I can still see





Ginger Caputo

And Dorian Gray

Oughtta stay out of pictures

If they got nothin' to say

Stack 'em back on the rack Jack

Ya know, you're hurting my eye

Forbidden Jimmy

He's getting ready to fly





Repeat Chorus





I got caught cooking popcorn

And calling it hail

They wanna stick my head

Inside a water pail

Ya know, they're gonna be sorry

They're gonna pay for it too

Forbidden Jimmy

He's coming straight at you
