Lyrics:
We were free and different, the music running through our veins
we built our own world, far away from squares and figures
A house at a lake, a campfire at a nuke base
We lived in the forest, and watched the children play
Chorus:
Now, we finally know that real things won’t go
when we survive, and we both know
we’re not burried yet, our hearts are still beating
we won’t surrender
Our lives were rock ‘n roll, our loves were great, our purses small
we were the lucky guys; we didn’t belong
there’s a world, there’s a world
where Jim and the jimmies can survive
we need to enter it again
the doors seem locked, we need to force them
Chorus.
Is there still a place for Jim and the Jimmies
do they belong to the past?
we are a part of Jim and the Jimmies
are they deceased or still alive?
we almost got them killed.
Chorus.
