Jim Reeves - Bimbo Lyrics






Bimbo, Bimbo, where ya gonna go-e-o
Bimbo, Bimbo, whatcha gonna do-e-o
Bimbo, Bimbo, does your mommy know
That you're goin' down the road to see a little girleo.

Bimbo is a little boy who's got a million friends,
And every time he passes by, they all invite him in.
He'll clap his hands and sing and dance, and talk his baby talk,
With a hole in his pants and his knees a-stickin' out,
he's just big enough to walk.

Bimbo, Bimbo, where ya gonna go-e-o
Bimbo, Bimbo, whatcha gonna do-e-o
Bimbo, Bimbo, does your mommy know
That you're goin' down the road to see a little girleo.

Bimbo's got two big blue eyes that light up like a star,
And the way to light them up is to buy him candy bars.
Crackerjacks and bubblegum will start his day off right,
All the girlies follow him just a-beggin' him for a bite.

Bimbo, Bimbo, candy on your face-e-o,
Bimbo, Bimbo, chewin' on your gum-e-o.
Bimbo, Bimbo, when you gonna grow
Everybody loves you, little baby Bimbo.

You never catch him sittin' still, he's just the rovin' kind,
Altho' he's just a little boy, he's got a grown-up mind.
He's always got a shaggy dog a-pullin' at his clothes,
And everybody calls to him as down the street he goes.

Bimbo, Bimbo, where ya gonna go-e-o
Bimbo, Bimbo, whatcha gonna do-e-o
Bimbo, Bimbo, does your mommy know
That you're goin' down the road to see a little girl-e-o

    In 2019

  23. L.... B....

    Like this song but the pitch sounds off.

    L.... B....

    Not every turntable spins at the same speed, though they should. Maybe the age of the record player plays a part, who knows. At any rate, you will hear a slight difference in speed or "pitch" on many videos here on Youtube. Play one version and then, play another, it does happen. Either way, I do this for fun, not for profit and though I prefer "perfection", I'm happy with ..... just o.k. - MrRJDB1969

    L.... B....

    @MrRJDB1969 That's why good turntables have a pitch control. I'm sorry but the little things bother especially on a songs with a fast beat like this one. Personally I wouldn't post a bad recording especially when there are at least 3 good quality recordings of the same song already posted.

  24. H.... I....

    One of my childhood favourites.

    Bimbo is also a very good city in Central African Republic, in the Bangui Area.

  48. p.... r....

    An image of a 1950s country boy -- barefoot, overalls and a carefree smile. So simplistic, so very special. Love this song. 12/2018

  49. f.... ....

    It's hard to believe that someone who later had as much respect as Jim Reeves did, recorded such a horrible song!

  50. f.... ....

    I never hated a song like this one!!! Our local radio station decreed that every kid had to have this song on their birthday, no matter what they wanted to hear. I will hate it til the day I die.

  51. 5.... ....

    He was a great country singer, too bad he changed to pop music in 1956.

  52. C.... H....

    I love all Jim Reeves' songs 💖💖

  53. O.... 8....

    Super, Jim Reeves has been one of my favorite singers for years, and he'll always be.

  71. L.... Y....

    My stepmother nicknamed my brother Bimbo after listening to this song once she married our Dad in 1974 and we have loved this song ever since.
    AND also my nickname was always Little LizaJane, which also became a hit song from Vince Gill

  72. L.... B....

    I'm one year older than this song and grew up listening to it. I sang it my kids when they were little....they had a spring horse named Bimbo...they'd ride ol' Bimbo til the springs nearly broke screaming Bimbo, Bimbo Bimbo! Great memories all the way around!! I'm going to record this on a karaoke track and send it my daughter....she'll hear it and say 'I know this!" :)

  73. C.... P....

    I remember my mother singing this song to my siblings and me when we were small children. She loved to listen to Jim Reeves; I didn't know until recently that it was one of his songs. I remember Mother listening to "Four Walls", "He'll Have to Go", and "I'm Gonna Change Everything That Holds a Memory of You." He did have a beautiful voice. I was a child when he was killed in the plane crash; I've been listening to a lot of the oldies on You Tube. I had forgotten what a handsome man Jim Reeves was. This pic must have been made when he was pretty young; he's certainly good lookin'! Can see why Mother was crazy about him!

    C.... P....

    Thanks for the comment Connie. Jim Reeves was a favorite of my moms as well, but I think it was in part, because he looked so much like her own dad who died in a home fire in 1961, when he was 44 years old. I was given my grandfathers complete name and so I too, as a kid, liked Jim Reeves before having ever heard him sing, just because my mom always said that he resembled the man that I was named after. Later, after hearing Reeves, I took a liking to his, "Welcome To My World", which became an immediate favorite of mine. - Roland (MrRJDB1969)
