Ashley Chittock - Young Jimmy [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Well young Jimmy he tried running, but that just wouldn't do
Young Jimmy he tried jumping, but it wouldn't get through to you
Young Jimmy he had a tale to tell, but that just wouldn't do
Young Jimmy, he had to murder just to make a dream come true

This a story bout one little boy who just needed to get his kicks
He was born to a trucker in a trailer park with a shotgun in his crib
By ten he was able to rob his wage to finance his thief clique
And by twenty he was getting paid by old wives to ride his stick

Well young Jimmy he tried running, but that just wouldn't do
Young Jimmy he tried jumping, but it wouldn't get through to you
Young Jimmy he had a tale to tell, but that just wouldn't do
Young Jimmy, he had to murder just to make a dream come true

Young Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, lay it on me
Why you need to stalk about in the dead of night, getting yours for free
Soon Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, you'll cross my street
And then young Jimmy you'll see what happens
When you get yours from me, oh

Young Jimmy he got reckless and held up a Natwest
It earned him a ride in a Black Maria and four years in a vest
An early release was given for passing the parole board's test
But he went back out and robbed the guards just to add hairs to his chest
Now the guards, they put up a good old fight, but Jimmy'd been around
He used a broken plate to full effect and the guards they hit the ground
And though the white van came for him and saw him gagged and bound
Jimmy's Kleptomania kept his head up in the clouds

Well young Jimmy he tried running, but that just wouldn't do
Young Jimmy he tried jumping, but it wouldn't get through to you
Young Jimmy he had a tale to tell, but that just wouldn't do
Young Jimmy, he had to murder just to make a dream come true
