Am  
 Jim's probably laying in this morning 
G 
 Hummin' as He sleeps 
Am 
 Feeling the glow of another Man's Woman 
G 
 As She lies beneath His feet 
          
F              C 
 Enjoyin' the cool morning breeze 
          Am           G 
Smellin' flowers as He goes

Am 
Jim will spend the rest of the day 
G 
 Playin' in some big hotel 
Am 
It's an old song with very bad rhymes 
G 
 But He does it so well 

        F              C 
He'll make some new acquaintances 
          Am                 G 
When He's out on His evening stroll 
F                       C 
 It's amazing that after all this time 
        G 
So many love 
        Am .. 
Big Jim Crow
