Texas Jimmy
He was one of a kind
Born to be free
Packed his suitcase
Waved his family goodbye
Toward Poughkeepsi

Waited a while
With his thumb in the air
Then caught a ride
On a pick-up truck

And he ended up in Taneytown
Carroll County, MD

Bye bye
Jimmy, goodbye
Hope you’ll find your way

He was strolling down
East Baltimore Street
The sun was sinking low
Tried to find a place to rest
When he
Felt someone grabbing his elbow

In a first reflex
He tried to break free
But the more he tried
The harder he was beaten up

No chance
No escape
Those guys know their job

And then he finally realized
Those who attacked him were the police

Bye bye
Jimmy, goodbye
Just follow your dreams
Hope you’ll make your way
And find
A place where your starlight gleams

They brought him handcuffed to the precinct
Put him under arrest
While the interrogation began
Official spokesmen informed the press
Jimmy’s life ended on death row
In some County jail
They said
It was murder in the first degree
With the Randall knife he carried with him

They didn’t believe
He picked it up somewhere
Though he swore „It isn’t mine“
The trial was over
Just before he realized
They’d send him down the line

They hung him in the morning glow
There was a light breeze 

Bye bye
Jimmy, goodbye
Hope you’ll find your peace
All what’s left was a little note
In a press release

Bye bye
Jimmy, goodbye
May your soul be free
Somewhere in better place
So bye bye, Jimmy
