I wished I was back at old jim canan's

I'd take my babe back to old jim canan's

I wished I was back at old jim canan's

I'd take my babe back to old jim canan's

I wished I was back at old jim canan's

I'd stand on the corner and wave my hand

Sayin' if you don't believe that I'm a drinkin' man

Then pleasey stop by here with your beer can

Because I wished I was back at old jim canan's

I'd take my babe back to old jim canan's

I wished I was back at old jim canan's

I'd take my babe back to old jim canan's

I wished I was back at old jim canan's

I'd take my babe back to old jim canan's

I'm goin' up town buy me coke and beer

Comin' back and tell you how these women here

They drink beer whiskey drink the coke and gin

When you don't pay the double they will ease you in

Still I wished I was back at old jim canan's

I'd take my babe back to old jim canan's

I wished I was back at old jim canan's

I'd take my babe back to old jim canan's

I wished I was back at old jim canan's

I'd take my babe back to old jim canan's

The men and women runnin' hand in hand

Goin' to and fro to old jim canan's

Drinkin' beer whiskey and sniffin' cocaine

That's been why I wished I was back at old jim canan's

And I wished I was back at old jim canan's
