Lying Jim

Lying Jim Lying Jim one of our local brothers



Hey there Lying Jim come on tell us another







Now ole Lying Jim got caught one time a stealin' a bunch of chickens



The neighbor all got so upset that the law went out to get him



Jim was sittin' there eatin' a leg and the law said what have you done



Jim said I was just passin' that house and these chickens followed me home



Lying Jim Lying Jim...







Now ole Lying Jim got drunk one time he passed right out in church



Fell right off the front row pew someone said Lord he's hurt



Next mornin' ole Jim sobered up out on the preacher's farm



He said preacher I was wrasslin' the devil and that rascal broke my arm

Now ole Lying Jim was broke one time and he tried to borrow money



Now some thought Jim was terrible some folks thought Jim was funny



They said Jim we'll give you thirty dollars just for one more lie



Jim said boys I ain't got time my old rich uncle just died



Lying Jim Lying Jim...







Now Jim was seein' the neighbor's wife and the man came home from work



Ole Jim grabbed his clothes to run but he only got his shirt



Well round and round that house they went and Jim was just in the kitchen



Jim said I was just showin' your wife where I got bit by a kitten
