Song lyrics:

WELL, JIMMY
PLAYED HARMONICA
IN THE PUB WHERE I WAS BORN
HE PLAYED IT
FROM THE NIGHT TIME
TO THE PEACEFUL EARLY MORN

HE SOOTHED THE SOULS
OF PSYCHOS AND THE
MEN WHO HAD THE HORN
AND THEY ALL LOOKED VERY
HAPPY IN THE MORNING

BUT JIMMY DIDN'T LIKE HIS
PLACE IN THIS WORLD OF OURS
WHERE THE ELEPHANT MAN
BROKE STRONG MEN'S NECKS
AND HE HAD TOO MANY POWERS

SO SAD TO SEE
THE GRIEVING OF THE
PEOPLE THAT I'M LEAVING
AND HE TOOK THE ROAD FOR
GOD KNOWS IN THE MORNING

WE WALKED HIM TO
THE STATION IN THE RAIN
WE KISSED HIM AS
WE PUT HIM ON THE TRAIN

AND WE SANG HIM A SONG
OF TIMES LONG GONE
THOUGH WE KNEW THAT
WE'D BE SEEIN' HIM AGAIN

I'M SAD TO SAY
I MUST BE ON ME WAY
SO, BUY ME BEER OR WHISKEY
'CAUSE I'M GOIN' FAR AWAY

I'D LIKE TO THINK OF ME
RETURNING WHEN I CAN
TO THE GREATEST
LITTLE BOOZER
AND TO SALLY MACLENNANE

THE YEARS WENT BY
THE TIMES THEY CHANGED
I GREW TO BE A MAN
I LEARNED TO LOVE THE VIRTUES
OF SWEET SALLY MACLENNANE

I TOOK THE JEERS
AND DRANK THE BEERS
AND CRAWLED
BACK HOME AT DAWN
AND ENDED UP
A BARMAN IN THE MORNING

I PLAYED THE PUMP
AND TOOK THE HUMP
AND WATERED WHISKEY DOWN
AND TALKED OF WHORES AND
HORSES TO THE MEN
WHO DRANK THE BROWN

I HEARD THEM SAY THAT
JIMMY'S MAKIN'
MONEY FAR AWAY
SOME PEOPLE LEFT FOR
HEAVEN WITHOUT WARNING

WE WALKED THEM TO
THE STATION IN THE RAIN
WE KISSED THEM AS
WE PUT 'EM ON THE TRAIN

AND WE SANG THEM A SONG
OF TIMES LONG GONE
THOUGH WE KNEW THAT
WE'D BE SEEIN' THEM AGAIN

I'M SAD TO SAY
I MUST BE ON ME WAY
SO, BUY ME BEER OR WHISKEY
'CAUSE I'M GOIN' FAR AWAY

I'D LIKE TO THINK OF ME
RETURNING WHEN I CAN
TO THE GREATEST
LITTLE BOOZER
AND TO SALLY MACLENNANE

WHEN JIMMY CAME BACK HOME
HE WAS SURPRISED
THAT THEY WERE GONE
HE ASKED ME ALL THE
DETAILS OF THE TRAIN
THAT THEY WENT ON

SOME PEOPLE
THEY ARE SCARED TO CROAK
BUT JIMMY DRANK
UNTIL HE CHOKED
HE TOOK THE ROAD FOR
HEAVEN IN THE MORNING

WE WALKED HIM TO
THE STATION IN THE RAIN
AND WE KISSED HIM AS
WE PUT HIM ON THE TRAIN

AND WE SANG HIM A SONG
OF TIMES LONG GONE
THOUGH WE KNEW THAT
WE'D BE SEEIN' HIM AGAIN

I'M SAD TO SAY
I MUST BE ON ME WAY
SO, BUY ME BEER OR WHISKEY
'CAUSE I'M GOIN' FAR AWAY

I'D LIKE TO THINK OF ME
RETURNING WHEN I CAN
TO THE GREATEST
LITTLE BOOZER
AND TO SALLY MACLENNANE
