G                              G7
That Jimmy Brown died at just 25
    C                          G
And they lowered him under the ground

Right at his head was a mark that had read
                  D           G
I leave the world young widow Brown
                                     G7
He left her for me now it's plain to see
     C                 G
Just why old Jim ain't around

I know that I've tried but the man ain't alive
                      D           G
That can keep up with young widow Brown

[Chorus]
     C
That woman she's crazy if she thinks
               G         D       G     G7
That I'll just keep on a hanging around
    C
I'd leave in a minute 'cept for one thing
     G            D           G
That one thing is young widow Brown

[Verse 2]
G                                                G7
In her high stepping style she's a going hog wild
     C                           G
This night life is a whooping me down

But if I lose a place then I'm out of the race
                D           G
For kisses from young widow Brown
                                        G7
I must be getting old my walk's getting slow
     C                  G
Just barely can make it around

I work night and day spend all of my pay
                D           G
On pretties for young widow Brown

[Chorus]
     C
That woman she's crazy if she thinks
               G         D       G     G7
That I'll just keep on a hanging around
    C
I'd leave in a minute 'cept for one thing
     G            D           G      G D
That one thing is young widow Brown
