[Verse:]
|
There's a man who's full of personality and charm
|
And he's heading for the hall of fame
|
Father Knickerbocker came and took 'im by the arm
|
Now we feel the magic of his name
|
|
[Refrain:]
|
Jimmy
|
We simply had to fall for one and all for Jimmy
|
|
And now we're singing of him 'cause we love him
|
Who told Broadway not to be gay?
|
Who gets his picture taken three times a day?
|
|
Jimmy
|
We're very glad to show that we all know that Jimmy
|
Is doing fine
|
|
Can't you hear those old New Yorkers hollering
|
"Gimme, gimme, gimme Jimmy for mine"
|
