Don't Sit On My Jimmy Shands Lyrics - Singles - Richard Thompson

When the party hit full swing, I saw you come reeling in 

You had that six pack in a stranglehold 

Now you stagger, now you sway, why don't you fall the other way? 

'Cause I've got something here worth more than gold 

I said,? Don't sit on my Jimmy Shands, don't sit on my Jimmy Shands 

They don't mend with sticky tape and glue? 

Don't sit on my Jimmy Shands, don't sit on my Jimmy Shands 

And that's my very best advice to you 

Call me precious, I don't mind, 78's are hard to find 

You just can't get the shellac since the war 

This one's the Beltona brand, finest label in the land 

They don't make 'em like that anymore

I said,? Don't sit on my Jimmy Shands, don't sit on my Jimmy Shands 

Unless you wanna wind up black and blue? 

Don't sit on my Jimmy Shands, don't sit on my Jimmy Shands 

And that's my very best advice to you 

Darling, though you're twice my size, I don't mean to patronize 

Honey, let me lead you by the hand 

Find a lap or find a chair, you can park it anywhere 

Just don't rest your cheeks against my man 

I said,? Don't sit on my Jimmy Shands, don't sit on my Jimmy Shands 

They don't mend with sticky tape and glue? 

Don't sit on my Jimmy Shands, don't sit on my Jimmy Shands 

And that's my very best advice to you 

No shindig is half complete without that famous polka beat 

That's why they invite me, I suppose 

Waltzes, Strathspey's, eightsome reels, now you know how good it feels 

Crank that handle babe, away she goes

I said,? Don't sit on my Jimmy Shands, don't sit on my Jimmy Shands 

Unless you wanna wind up black and blue 

I said,? Don't sit on my Jimmy Shands, don't sit on my Jimmy Shands 

And that's my very best advice to you?
