But if we had to pinpoint The start of who we are we'd go back
Django and Jimmie
Paris Mississippi
A young singing brakeman A jazz playing gypsy
There might not have been
A merle or a willie if not For Django and Jimmie
Through the 20's and 30's Jimmie sang his way
To the top despite of those old blues
Django was a star he burned up a guitar
With just two good fingers to use
You can't turn back time
Or put more sand in the glass
But sometimes at night
I close my eyes and go back
Django and Jimmie
Paris Mississippi
A young singing brakeman
A jazz playing gypsy
There might not have been
A merle or a willie
If not for Django and Jimmie
There might not have been
A merle or a willie
If not for
Django and Jimmie
