Jim Dandy to the rescue!
Jim Dandy to the rescue!
Jim Dandy to the rescue!
Go, Jim Dandy! Go, Jim Dandy!
I was sitting on a mountain top.
30,000 feet to drop.
Tied me on a runaway horse
Uh huh, that's right, of course.
Jim Dandy to the rescue!
Go, Jim Dandy! Go, Jim Dandy!
One day, I met a girl named Sue.
She was feeling kind of blue.
I'm Dandy, the kind of guy
Who can't stand to see a little girl cry.
Jim Dandy to the rescue!
Go, Jim Dandy! Go, Jim Dandy!
Jim Dandy to the rescue!
Jim Dandy to the rescue!
Jim Dandy to the rescue!
Go, Jim Dandy! Go, Jim Dandy!
I was riding on a submarine
Got a message from my mermaid queen.
She was hanging on a fishing line.
Mr. Dandy didn't waste no time!
Jim Dandy to the rescue!
Go, Jim Dandy! Go, Jim Dandy!
Once upon a time, I went to Maine.
Got a ticket on a DC plane.
Mr. Dandy didn't need no chute!
I was high and ready to boot!
Jim Dandy to the rescue!
Go, Jim Dandy! Go, Jim Dandy!
Jim Dandy to the rescue!
Jim Dandy to the rescue!
Jim Dandy to the rescue!
Go, Jim Dandy! Go, Jim Dandy!

Comments/Interpretations
Awesome! Thanks so much!
This song is so stupid!
black oak rules!
Dreyer Heaves---- you wouldnt know good music if it hit u in the face! you should be ashamed! calling a classic stupid!
Awesome song mate! I love it! Keep up the great work.
Spied a lady on a runaway horse
This song has gone from retarded to stupid to awesome! Actually it's Jim Dandy!
My husband remembers this from when he was 16---he's 70 now.
It's amazing what we listened to back then. Some of the lyrics make no sence, but the music in awesome!
Heaard this song on a movie and thought it was great have to get it
Are you interested on being booked?
I'm sure I heard an earlier version of this song. When was it actually first published?
Hey Fanny Lou....if your husband heard this song when he was 16, that means the song came out in 1942. You need to check your math or your husbands age!
I remember this song from the 70s. It generated my favourite mondegreen (misheard lyric). My sister thought it was saying, "Jim's Daddy to the Rest-room!" like he was being paged or something. After she told me that, I couldn't hear the real words anymore!
Actually rock master, this song came out in 1956, exactly when franny lou's husband was 16. Where did you get 1942 from, and then tell someone else to check their math???
I think the 3rd line in the 1st verse is "Spied a Girl on a Runaway Horse".
Which makes more sense...
Yep...truly dumbass song
The 70s what a beautiful decade. I seen Black Oak on many of there tours. ROCK ON BLACK OAK.
could the song be about different experiences while high--and "jim dandy" like a good j-oint...
