(Wingfield/Vernon/Foster)

Jimmy was a winner back in his home town

People came to see him play from miles around

Then one morning he woke up and looked himself in the face

Said I'm going round in circles I ain't gettin' no place

All this working for peanuts is getting way out of hand

I've had about as much of it as I can stand

Gonna' drop, drop everything and run

Drop, drop everything and run

I want fame, fortune, my name up in lights

Goodbye small time from tonight

Gonna' drop, drop everything and run

Jimmy gave his notice headed down to the smoke

Well it wasn't too much later he was hungry and broke

He'd been paying out good money for a hole in the wall

Gigging every night and earning nothing at all

Said the work that I've been dreaming of is way out of reach

I've got to be a bigger pebble on a smaller beach

Gonna' drop, drop everything and run

Drop, drop everything and run

I want fame, fortune, my name up in lights

Now it's 'Hello home town, bye tonight'

Gonna' drop, drop everything and run

Oooh Aaahhh That crazy Jimmy

Oooh Aaahhh

Back amongst his friends he had to swallow his pride

'Cause he thought the grass was greener on the other side

Gonna' drop, drop everything and run

Drop, drop everything and run

I want fame, fortune, my name up in lights

Now it's 'Hello home town, bye tonight'

Gonna' drop, drop everything

Drop, drop everything

Drop, drop everything and run
