Drive-By Truckers - Hearing Jimmy Loud lyrics

[Drive-By Truckers - Hearing Jimmy Loud lyrics]

Trapped in a truck with Jimmy
Listening to his band jimmy's out of place
Same as ashtrays and column shifts
Said his last old lady nearly
Run him in the ground
Half a gram later I was hearing Jimmy loud

She had a tanning habit
She's like a talking leather couch
Warm between the cushions where she
Hid whatever treasure fell out
Said she only hollered when she'd stood
As much as she could stand
Jimmy's ego can take it baby go on and
Fake it as loud as you can

She's my baby and she knows it
I get reminded now and then
You're either someone's or you're nothing
God must be a lonely man



Them kids ain't never listened
Ain't no use in trying now
All we're doing's getting older and our
Welcome and our warnings wearing out
Jimmy's babies
Mama's got him lawyered up one side and down
That earful cost me nothing
Poor old Jimmy's paying for it by the pound

Everybody loves a baby
Everybody loves a child
Nobody wants to see them damaged
Nobody wants them running wild

The moral lessons of a charmed life
Only get through guilty ears
Thanks to learning, luck and half sense
I'm hearing Jimmy loud and clear
