Little Jimmy's gone Way out of the backstreet Out of the window through the fallin1 rain Right on time, right on time That's like a broken arrow Waved his finger down the road so dark and narrow In the evenin' Just before the sun is six-bells chime Six-bells chime And all the dogs are barking Way on down the diamond-studded highway Where you wander And you roam from your retreat and view Way over on the railroad Tomorrow all the tipping tracks Will huddle together Every scrapbook stuck will glue And I'll stand beside you, beside you child To never never never wonder why at all No no no no no no no no To never never wonder why at all To never never never wonder why It's gotta be, it has to be Way across the country Where the hillside mountain glide The dynamo of your smile Caressed the barefoot virgin child to wander Past your window with a lantern lit You held it in the doorway And you cast against the pointed idle breeze Said your time was open Go well on your merry way Past the brazen footsteps of the silence easy You breathe in, you breathe out You breathe in, you breathe out Then you're high on your high-flyin' cloud Wrapped up in your magic shroud As ecstasy surrounds you This time it's found you You turn around, you turn around You turn around, you turn around And I'm beside you, beside you, oh darlin1 To never never wonder why at all No no no no no To never never never wonder why at all To never never never wonder why It's gotta be, it has to be And I'm beside you, beside you, oh child To never never wonder why at all I'm beside you, beside you Beside you, beside you, oh child
