Johnny Tillotson

Johnny Tillotson (born April 20, 1939 in Jacksonville, Florida) is an American singer and songwriter. He enjoyed his greatest success in the early 1960s, when he scored 9 top-ten hits on the pop, country and adult contemporary billboard charts including "Poetry In Motion" and the self-penned "It Keeps Right On A-Hurtin'". He also sang "Yellow Bird", an adaptation of the Haitian song. Johnny's version is quoted as being a favorite of the former head of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom, because he and his wife had enjoyed it during their honeymoon. (BBC Interview) more »

Jimmy's girl, Jimmy's girl
Wish that I were holdin' Jimmy's girl
I'm in love with Jimmy's girl
Though I've never met her

Still I can't forget her
Jimmy's girl
Jimmy's always telling me
That her hair is golden

Wish that I were holdin'
Jimmy's girl
He says her lips are warm
Each time they kiss good night

And just as sweet as any lips can be-ee
And then I close my eyes
And though it's make-believe
I pretend she's in love with me-ee

How I long for Jimmy's girl
But her love is taken
So my heart is breakin'
For Jimmy's girl (Jimmy's girl)

When I close my eyes
Although it's make-believe
I pretend she's in love with me-ee
I'm in love with Jimmy's girl

But her love is taken
So my heart is breakin'
For Jimmy's girl, Jimmy's girl
How my heart is breakin'

For Jimmy's girl (Jimmy's girl)
