"Jimmy's Song" lyrics - BARRY MCGUIRE

Everytime I talk to
My Father about you
He says child be still
But last night He was talkin'
And He said the time was comin'
When you would stop your runnin'
And be loved

You let me sing a song to you
Every now and then
But I'm askin' you
When will you listen
You say I never sing about
Anyone but Jesus
Well that's because Jesus
Is my song

So remember when you see me
That you've been spoken for
And He's knockin' at your door
To give you life
Now I won't look behind me
To see if you are comin'
'Cause I know that you'll be runnin'
To be loved

You let me sing a song to you
Every now and then
But I'm askin' you
When will you listen
You say I never sing about
Anyone but Jesus
Well that's because Jesus
Is my song
