Sunny Jim

(アルバム： Jim Sullivan - 1972)

Sonny Jim, I knew him as a boy way back when
Sonny Jim, he's no older now than he was then
Still flies kites on windy days, climbs the tallest trees
A rolling, scrumpling, dirty boy with patches on his knees
How do you get that way, Sonny Jim?

Sonny Jim, whistling up a tune that I once knew
Sonny Jim, whoa I must have kicked that can a mile or two
How is it that I got old and you stayed all the same?
Have you been around so long, living's just your game?
How do you stay that way, Sonny Jim?

Sonny Jim, oh will you share your secret with me now?
Sonny Jim, I believing in a while, tell me how
He just smiled a crooked smile at me, this is all he said
He said I've been born a million times but I'm never dead
How do you stay that way, Sonny Jim?
