I'm a kid with a guitar

Trying to play new nuages

When they ask

Where does your style come from

I know what you mean

Cause I learned to sing

Listening to blue yodel No 1

We love hank and lefty

Bob Wills ernest tubbs

And Johnny Cash

But if we had to pinpoint

The start of who we are we'd go back

Django and Jimmie

Paris Mississippi

A young singing brakeman

A jazz playing gypsy

There might not have been

A merle or a willie if not

For Django and Jimmie

Through the 20's and 30's

Jimmie sang his way

To the top despite of those old blues

Django was a star he burned up a guitar

With just two good fingers to use

You can't turn back time

Or put more sand in the glass

But sometimes at night

I close my eyes and go back

Django and Jimmie

Paris Mississippi

A young singing brakeman

A jazz playing gypsy

There might not have been

A merle or a willie

If not for

Django and Jimmie

There might not have been

A merle or a willie

If not for

Django and Jimmie
