Jim Croce - You don?t mess around with jim
------------------------------------------

Up-town got its hustlers, the Bow'ry got its bums
And 42nd Street got Big Jim Walker 
He a pool-shootin' son of a gun 
Yeah, he big and dumb as a man can come 
But he stronger than a country hoss 
And when the bad folks all get together at night 
You know they all call Big Jim "Boss," just because 

And they say, "you don't tug on Superman's cape 
You don't spit into the wind 
You don't pull the mask off the old Lone Ranger 
And you don't mess around with Jim" 
A doo-dn-doo-da-da-dee-dee-dn-dee-dee-dee

Well, out of South Alabama come a country boy 
He said, "I'm lookin' for a man named Jim 
I am a pool-shootin' boy, my name is Willie McCoy 
But down at home they call me Slim 
Yeah, I'm lookin' for the king of 42nd Street 
He drivin' a drop-top Cadillac 
Last week he took all my money and it may sound funny 
But I come to get my money back 
And ev'rybody say, Jack, don't you know that

"You don't tug on Superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind 
You don't pull the mask off the old Lone Ranger 
And you don't mess around with Jim" 
A doo-dn-doo-da-da-dee-dee-dn-dee-dee-dee

Well, a hush fell over the pool room 
When Jimmy come boppin' in off the street 
And when the cuttin' were done, the only part that wasn't bloody 
Was the soles of the big man's feet 
Yeah, he was cut in 'bout a hundred places 
And he was shot in a couple more 
And you better believe they sung a diff'rent kind of story 
When a Big Jim hit the floor - oh oh oh

Yeah, they say, "you don't tug on Superman's cape 
You don't spit into the wind 
You don't pull the mask off the old Lone Ranger 
And you don't mess around with Slim" 
Mmmmh

Yeah, Big Jim got his hat, found out where it's at 
And not hustling people strange to you 
Even if you do got a two-piece custom-made pool cue, mmh

Yeah, you don't tug on Superman's cape 
You don't spit into the wind 
You don't pull the mask off the old Lone Ranger 
And you don't mess around with Slim" 
Mmmmh, mmmh ....
