Johnny Cash – Ringing The Bells For Jim lyrics
[Verse 1]
The father heard church bells at midnight
A wrong time for church bells to chime
He went to the tower, found a little girl there
Said, Why ring the bells at this time?

[Chorus]
I'm just ringing the bells for Jim
Please father, ringing the bells for Jim
I'm sorry, I'm crying but my brother Jim is dying
So, I'm ringing the bells for Jim

[Verse 2]
Please father, pray for him this Christmas
He's sick and he's in so much pain
The doctors all say, he'll be gone any day
So, I must ring the bells again

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
On the day after Christmas
She brought him said, Father, heed little Jim
You see, he got well, when he heard the church bells
I was ringing the bells for Jim

[Chorus]
