Lyrics

Poor James

There once was a man By the name of James People called him crazy Called him so insane Cuz he had a habit That he had to kill It stole his life And it made him ill So he knew It had to change So I said Poor James Poor James Poor James Poor James Poor James Poor James Poor James Poor James Yeah It was so persistent Couldn't leave for a day What could he do What could he say He just had to leave her Show her who was boss James was up at-bat And he had to be tossed So he knew He couldn't refrain So I said Poor James Poor James Yeah Poor James Poor James Poor James Poor James Poor James Poor James Alright
