[Verse 1]
     D5
Some friends of mine,
just the other night
        G5                     F5
Went to hear this cool cat blow
           D5
The say he sang so good that the roof fell in,
         G5
and they didn't even stop the show
F5             D5
  They don't remember the place,
but they remember the face,
        G5                F5
and now everybody wanna go
Woo!

[Chorus]
G5          D5    F5          C5
  Top Jimmy cooks,  Top Jimmy swings
G5                  E5
  He's got the look,  oh
F5          G5             Amadd11/D
  Top Jimmy,  he's the king

[Bridge]
| Emadd11 | -         | Amadd11/D | - |

[Verse 2]
D5
Jimmy on the television,
famous people laughing with him
G5
Jimmy on the news at five
F5 D5
   Jimmy on the radio and even on the video,
     G5
that baddest cat alive
F5 D5
   Driving all the women crazy,
only want Jimmy baby
G5                            F5
Love it when he rolls his eyes

[Chorus]
G5          D5    F5          C5
  Top Jimmy cooks,  Top Jimmy swings
G5                 E5
  He's got the look
F5
  Top Jimmy
G5                   E5
  Woo, shake it baby!
