Jimmy is married and he lives down south 
His wife lives somewhere colder 
He sees another woman in a badlands town 
And she cries upon his shoulder 
Jimmy thinks that he's a helpless man 
He thinks about love in a vacuum 
And he won't remember that talk you had 
When you were walking into the bedroom 

He'll say I don't know why we met 
The simple truth is always the best 
See 'est la vie what's done is done 
And there's somebody for everyone 

Jimmy has debts and Jimmy has ties 
That he can't get out from under 
If you look far enough into his eyes 
It'll rock you just like thunder 

Jimmy broke locks and Jimmy broke bolts 
Just to get himself out from under 
When you feel like you're lying in a prison cell 
It'll kind of make you wonder 

He'll say it's destiny we met 
The simple truth is always the best 
Don't you see what's done is done 
And there's somebody for everyone 

I used to get drunk to get my spark 
And it used to work just fine 
It made me wretched but it gave me heart 
I miss Jimmy like I miss my wine 

Jimmy as if you didn't know by now 
Let me tell you a thing or two 
Everybody might have someone 
But everyone falls in love with you... 

He'll say you get just what you get 
The simple truth is always the best 
Don't you see what's done is done? 
And there's somebody for everyone
