You Don't Mess Around With Jim - Ty Herndon[00:00:01]
Uptown got its hustlers[00:00:07]
The Bow'ry got its bums[00:00:10]
The 42nd Street got Big Jim Walker[00:00:13]
He's a pool shootin' son of a gun[00:00:16]
Yeah he's big and dumb as a man can come[00:00:18]
But he's stronger than a country hoss[00:00:21]
When the bad folks all get together at night[00:00:24]
You know they all call Big Jim 'Boss' just because[00:00:28]
And they say you don't tug on Superman's cape[00:00:33]
You don't spit into the wind[00:00:37]
You don't pull the mask off the old lone ranger[00:00:40]
And you don't mess around with Jim[00:00:43]
Well out of South Alabama came a country boy[00:00:50]
Said he was looking for a man named Jim[00:00:53]
"Hey I'm a pool shootin' boy my name is Willie McCoy[00:00:57]
At home they just call me Slim"[00:00:59]
"Hey I'm lookin' for the king of Forty Second Street[00:01:03]
Drivin' a drop top Cadillac[00:01:06]
Last week he took all my money[00:01:08]
And it may sound funny[00:01:10]
But I've come to get my money back"[00:01:12]
And everybody say "Jack don't you know[00:01:15]
You don't tug on Superman's cape[00:01:18]
You don't spit into the wind[00:01:21]
You don't pull the mask off the old lone ranger[00:01:24]
And you don't mess around with Jim"[00:01:27]
Well a hush fell over the room[00:01:49]
Jimmy came boppin' in off the street[00:01:51]
And when the cuttin' was done[00:01:55]
The only part that wasn't bloody[00:01:56]
Was the soles of the big man's feet[00:01:58]
Well he was cut in 'bout a hundred places[00:02:01]
And he was shot in a couple more[00:02:03]
And you better believe[00:02:07]
They sang a diff'rent kind of story[00:02:08]
When Big Jim hit the floor[00:02:10]
Oh oh yeah don't you know[00:02:13]
You don't tug on Superman's cape[00:02:16]
You don't spit into the wind[00:02:19]
You don't pull the mask off the old lone ranger[00:02:22]
And you don't mess around with Slim[00:02:25]
Don't you know [00:02:28]
You don't tug on Superman's cape[00:02:28]
You don't spit into the wind[00:02:31]
You don't pull the mask off the old lone ranger[00:02:34]
And you don't mess around with slim[00:02:37]
Yeah Big Jim found out where it's at[00:02:50]
Yeah he's hustling people strange to you[00:02:55]
Even if you do got a two-piece custom made pool cue[00:02:59]
