       D
Some friends of mine, just the other night
         G
Went to hear this cool cat blow
            D
The say he sang so good that the roof fell in,
          G
and they didn't even stop the show
              D
They don't remember the place,
but they remember the face,
        G
and now everybody wanna go

Chorus:
G          D      F          C
Top Jimmy cooks, Top Jimmy swings
G             Em
He's got the look, oooh
F         G A        D
Top Jimmy, he's the king

Jimmy on the television,
famous people laughing with him
Jimmy on the news at five
Jimmy on the radio and even on the video,
that baddest cat alive
Driving all the women crazy,
only want Jimmy-baby
Love it when he rolls his eyes

Chorus

Whoo, shake it baby!

Juke-joint Jimmy is the latest thing,
he's got the sound that everybody digs
And the joint been jumpin'
when the band been pumpin'
and you know they're playing crazy gigs
Well you ain't been living till
you've seen the living end
Top Jimmy and his Rhythm Pigs

Chorus

Oh, Jimmy
