Jim Dandy Got Married

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
