Lyrics
Jim Dandy done fell in love
Jim Dandy done fell in love
Jim Dandy done fell in love
Love, Jim Dandy, love, Jim Dandy
Jim Dandy rescued May
Fell in love with her the very same day
Got engaged that afternoon
Left that night on his honeymoon
Jim Dandy got married
Love, Jim Dandy, love, Jim Dandy
Jim Dandy gave May a kiss
Fought a lion with his two damn fists
Swam the ocean in a suit of steel
With a sign saying, my love is real
Jim Dandy got married
Love, Jim Dandy, love, Jim Dandy
Jim Dandy got married
Jim Dandy got married
Jim Dandy got married
Love, Jim Dandy, love, Jim Dandy
Jim Dandy was nicknamed Dan
Luckiest cat in all the land
Loved May so well it seems
In a month, she was plum insane
Jim Dandy got married
Love, Jim Dandy, love, Jim Dandy
Jim Dandy was summoned to court
May was suing for non support
Judge, she hollered
He would make you sob
Loving May is a full time job
Jim Dandy got married
Love, Jim Dandy, love, Jim Dandy
Love, love, love, Jim Dandy
Jim Dandy got married
He's real gone this time
Y'all hear, so long, Jim Dandy
He's gone, y'all
I know he won't be back now
Writer(s): Alonzo Tucker, Tyran Carlo, Lincoln Chase, Albert Green
