INTRO: C5  C5  C5  C5  C5  C5   C5   F5 
 
C5 
Uptown's got its hustlers, the Bowry's got its bums 
    C5 
And forty-second street's got Big Jim Walker 
                               C5 
He's a pool shootin' son of a gun 
          F5 
Yeah he's big and dumb as a man can come 
             
And he's stronger than a country hoss 
             Bb5 
And when the bad folks all get together at night 
               F5                            C5 
You know they all call Big Jim boss, just because, and they say 


          F5                 C5 
You don't tug on Superman's cape 
          F5               C5 
You don't spit into the wind 
          F5                     C5 
You don't pull the mask off the ol' Lone Ranger 
         Bb5         F5          C5    F5              C5       C5 
And you don't mess around with Jim , do do do do da dee dee dee  
 
 
Well outta 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 
At home they just call me Slim 
Yeah I'm lookin for the king of forty-second street drivin a drop top Cadillac 
Last week he took all my money and it may sound funny 
But I've come to get my money back" and everybody say Jack, don't you know 
 
CHORUS 
 
Well a hush fell over the pool room 
As Jimmy came boppin in offa the street 
And when the cuttin' was done the only part that wasn't bloody 
Was the soles of the big man's feet 
Yeah he was cut in 'bout a hundred places 
He was shot in a couple more 
And you better believe they sung a different kind of story 
When Big Jim hit the floor, uh huh huh, now they say 
 
 
CHORUS 2: 
 
You don't tug on Superman's cape 
You don't spit into the wind 
You don't pull the mask of the ol' Lone Ranger 
And you don't mess around with Slim 
 
CHORUS 2 
 
 
You don't pull the mask off the ol Lone Ranger 
And you don't mess around with Slim
