Lucky Jim.

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. Aug 2000.

Jim and I as children played together,
Best of chums for many years were we.

I, alas, had no luck, was a Jonah,
Jimmy chum was lucky as could be.

Ah! Lucky Jim!
How I envy him,

Ah, Lucky Jim,
How I envy him.

Years passed by, still Jim and I were comrades,
He and I both loved the same sweet maid,

She loved Jim and married him one evening,
Jim was lucky, I unlucky stayed.

Ah! Lucky Jim!
How I envy him,

Ah, Lucky Jim,
How I envy him.

Years rolled by and death took Jim away, boys,
Left his widow and she married me,

Now we're married, oft I think of Jim, boys
Sleeping in the churchyard by the sea.

Ah! Lucky Jim!
How I envy him,

Ah, Lucky Jim,
How I envy him.
