***** PJs Guitar Chords & Lyrics - http://www.guitarsongs.info ***** YOU Don'T MESS AROUND WITH JIM JIM CROCE G Uptown got it's hustlers G Bowery got it's bums G And 42nd street got big Jim Walker G7 He's a pool shootin' son of a gun C F C F Ya, he's big and dumb as a man can come C F C But stronger than a country hoss D C7 And when the bad folks all get together at night D C G C G You know they all call big Jim boss, just because And they say Chorus: C7 G You don't tug on Superman's cape C7 G You don't spit into the wind C7 You don't pull the mask off the old Lone Ranger D7 G C G7 C D7 And you don't mess around with Jim, da, do, da, do... Well out of south Alabama come a country boy He said, "I'm looking for a man named Jim I am a pool shootin' boy, my name is Willie McCoy But down home they call me Slim And I'm looking for the king of 42nd street He's driving a drop top Cadillac Last week he took all my money, and it may sound funny But I've come to get my money back," and everybody said, Jack, don't you know Chorus Well a hush fell over the pool room When Jim he come boppin' off the street And when the cuttin' was done The only part that wasn't bloody was the soles of the big man's feet And he was cut in 'bout a hundred places And he was shot in a couple more And you better believe they sung a different kind of story When big Jim hit the floor Chorus 2 You don't tug on Superman's cape You don't spit into the wind You don't pull the mask off the old Lone Ranger And you don't mess around with Slim, da, do, da, do... Chorus 2 (Spoken) Yeah, big Jim got his hat Find out where it's at And not hustling people strange to you Even if you do got a two piece custom made pool cue ***************************************************************************************** The above is solely MY INTERPRETATION of this great song, in a format aimed at learning guitarists.
