The curious narrative of a young man leading an exploratory life. The pages turn as you listen to this novel riddled with strumming acoustic guitars and a contagious chorus that can only be cured by singing along.

lyrics

Lyrics:

It was really hard not to stare at his makeup and long brown hair
his dark blue jeans and high-heel shoes
Man, it sure was a crazy scene, he looked like a girl from a magazine
turning heads enough to make front page news

You know he turned to me and said
Get me a cab cause my car is dead
Scarf on neck and beret on head,
He was really quite a gas

Jimmy's a lady now
He's been that way since Friday
Probably be till Monday, lets wait and see

Jimmy's a lady now
You know he's so outrageous,
Writing brand new pages in history

Him and his folks got into a fight
they kicked him out on his ass last night
and now he spends his days living on the street
He sits alone playing his guitar
No dreams of being a rock n' roll star
He just does it somedays to make ends meet

You know he turned to me and said
You may see blue, but I see red
I didn't understand, I scratched my head
Oh that boy he was such a gas

Jimmy's a lady now
He met a girl named Jainey on a cold and rainy afternoon
Jimmy's a lady now
She took him to her home, I don't think he'll be alone again real soon
