Lyrics Reverend Horton Heat

Reverend Horton Heat

You've Got a Friend in Jimbo

Whenever you are lonesome and it's late at night

And everyone around you is a little uptight

Whenever you need, you need a little lift

Jimbo is the man, the man with the gift

When murky water stands in your above ground pool

And some evil thing is living in your barn

When it's four am and you're all alone

And no one really gives a golly gosh darn

When the devil makes you look at those evil red lips

And you wish they were kissin' on you

Remember that you have got a friend, and he's got a

friend in you

Can i get a hallelu? -hallelujah!

You've got a friend in jimbo, you've got a friend in

him

The biblical name for him is james, the nickname for

james is jim

The nickname for jim is jimbo, what very very special

things he'll do

Yeah you've got a friend in jimbo, if he's got a friend

in you

What a special friend he's been to you your trailer

is... is double wide

You'll always have plenty of soup from the can with

jimbo by your side

And when you walk into the darkness with jimbo (beer in

hand)

He'll lead you like a little lamb to deer park texas

land

Oh!

You've got a friend in jimbo, you've got a friend in

him

The biblical name for him is james, the nickname for

james is jim

The nickname for jim is jimbo, what very very special

things he'll do

Yeah you've got a friend in jimbo, if he's got a friend

in you

Oh!

You've got a friend in jimbo you've got a friend for

life

You've got a shoulder to cry on if you've just lost

your boyfriend or your wife.

So! you got a friend in jimbo and he's got a friendly

beer to lend

When troubles just won't end and you've been forced to

bend you

Maybe feel like you're in limbo but you've got a friend

in jimbo

Maybe feel like you're in limbo but you've got a friend

in jimbo

Maybe feel like you're in limbo but you've got a friend

in jimbo

Maybe feel like you're in limbo but you've got a friend

in jimbo

Stop!

Hold on just one second don't get caught in the devil's

runaround

Cause it just goes and it goes and it goes and it

goes...

Hey! look up there there's a light shining down from

above

And it's saying something, do you know what it says? -

what does it say?

It says you, you need, you need you need you need you

need you need

A special friend until the end it says you need you

need you need you need a friend

Until the end a special friend it says you neeeeeed

You need a friend until the end you need you need you

need you need a friend

You need a friend until the end

You need you need you need you need you need you need

you need you need

You need you need you need you need you need you need

you need you need you

Stop!

You've got a friend in jimbo you've got a friend in him

The biblical name for him is james the nickname for

james is jim.

Oh!

The nickname for jim is jimbo and he's your very very

special friend.

Yeah you've got a friend in jimbo and he's got a beer

to lend a friend.
