Aretha Franklin - Jimmy Lee

Tekst piosenki:

All this time I couldn’t shake your memory
And I never knew the sweetest love was the first
So what am I supposed to do about this curse
Oh, baby, I’ve got you to blame
And I’m calling, calling out your name

Oh, he was so fine, Jimmy Lee
Oh, he was so fine, Jimmy, Jimmy Lee
(Jimmy Lee) Jimmy, Jimmy Lee
(Jimmy Lee)

Find me rushing off to school every morning
Never had a care
Acting crazy, always laughing when I’m running
Cause I knew you’d meet me when I got there

Stealing kisses in the hall before the first bell
You smelled so fine
Though we’d just met I guess you knew me so well
You had the number to my heartline

(Maybe he knew his stuff) Well, just between you and me
(Maybe you weren’t enough) He was the first one
(Maybe he’d seen enough) He stole my heart
And he ran like a bandit, I don’t understand it

Jimmy Lee, this one’s for me, and I’ll always remember
History, biology, and that magical December, ooh, boy
Jimmy Lee, where can you be, if this song ever finds you
Won’t you please explain to me why you left me behind you, yeah

(Jimmy Lee) Jimmy

On the average twice a week I think I see you
On some avenue
Someone laughs or shakes his head they way you used to
I guess I, I got myself a loose screw

I grew up and had my share of adventure
Well, I’ve had some fun
But you never need to question my intentions
Cause each guy is just another rerun

(Maybe he knew his stuff) Well, just between you and me
(Maybe you weren’t enough) He was the first one
(Maybe he’d seen enough) He stole my heart
And he ran like a bandit, I don’t understand it

Jimmy Lee, this one’s for me, and I’ll always remember, hey, Lord
History, biology, and that magical December, ah, hah
Jimmy Lee, where can you be, if this song ever finds you
Won’t you please explain to me why you left me behind you, oh, yeah

(Jimmy Lee) Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy Lee
(Jimmy Lee, Jimmy Lee)

(Maybe he knew his stuff) Well, just between you and me
(Maybe you weren’t enough) He was the first one
(Maybe he’d seen enough) He stole my heart
And he ran like a bandit, I don’t understand it, yeah

Jimmy Lee, this one’s for me, and I’ll always, always remember
History, biology and that magical, oh, December
Jimmy Lee, where can you be, if this song ever finds you, yeah, yeah, yeah
Won’t you please explain to me why you left me, oh, behind you
Jimmy Lee, this one’s for me, ooh, hey Jimmy, hey Jimmy
