Donīt Mess Around with Jim    (RYL 1039)  Jack Pladdys

OPENER



Grand Square
Uptown got its hustlers
The Bowery got its bums
42nd Street got Big Jim Walker
Allemande Left with the Corner & Weave around the ring
You don't tug on Superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off that old Lone Ranger
And you don't mess around with Jim

FIGURE



Heads Promenade and go halfway
Walk in Pass the Ocean and then - Extend
Swing Thru tonight - Spin the Top all right
Boy move up and do the Right & Left Thru
Square Thru and count 'em go 3
Swing that Girl and Promenade her for me
You don't pull the mask off that old Lone Ranger
And you don't mess around with Jim

MIDDLE BREAK



Grand Square
Out of South Alabama came a country boy
He said I'm lookin' for a man named Jim
I'm a pool shootin' boy - My name is Willie McCoy
Allemande Left with the Corner & Weave around the ring
You don't tug on Superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off that old Lone Ranger
And you don't mess around with Jim

CLOSER



Grand Square
Well, a hush fell over the pool room
Jimmy come boppin' in off the street
And when the cuttin' were done the only part that wasn't bloody
Allemande Left with the Corner & Weave around the ring
You don't tug on Superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off that old Lone Ranger
And you don't mess around with Slim
