Music and Lyrics by James Wolff

lyrics

Back when the world was still a wild wonder
and money was nothin’ cept something to eat
You walked off the heels of your boots
and your days were filled with thick women who had nowhere to be

Well, I got nothin to do
So sing me those old-timey blues

Jimmy, what have you learned
From throwin around all your worth?
You haven’t a wheel left to turn

Some folks grow old, some folks grow cold
But most people never just let themselves grow
Deep in the factory or out on the moon
God, let me die young ‘fore i’m livin that way

With the moon on your back
Your day’s now setting fast

Jimmy, oh what have you learned
From throwin around all your worth?
You haven’t a wheel left to turn

Once in a while I feel those daydreams flow
Just set me down easy when I come around
Cuz oh lord it’s a damn thing
Wishin my heart was as gold as back then
Now each second passes inside of a haze
But you and I both know that, Jimmy, you’re just a man

Jimmy, what have you learned
From throwin around all your worth?
You haven’t a wheel left to turn
