I just can't believe that it's over.
We were chilling out on the sofa,
Digging how the guitar goes,
In a song that no one knows.
Did you lick that line yourself,
Or did the voodoo magic help?
Does everyone have a different take?
Do you seem real but I seem fake?
Does everyone get hypnotized by your fire?

So long, Jimmy, so long.
Though you only stayed a moment,
We all know that you're the one. Singing,
So long, Jimmy, so long.
Sure we're glad for the experience,
We miss you now you've gone.
We're just swimming in your soul 'cause,
We all wish we wrote this song.
Life goes on.

I'm just so relieved that it's over.
We were hanging out going nowhere,
Digging how the guitar goes,
In a song that no one knows.
Did you burn that bridge yourself,
Or did the voodoo magic help?
Does everyone have a different take?
Are you just cool and I'm just baked?
Does everyone get mesmerized by your fire?

So long, Jimmy, so long.
Though you only stayed a moment,
We all know that you're the one. Singing,
So long, Jimmy, so long.
Sure we're glad for the experience,
We miss you now you've gone.
We're just swimming in your soul 'cause,
We all wish we wrote this song.
Life goes on.

About Hendrix I take it. Probably the second best song on the cd for me. It's a nice tribute, but still pretty lack lustering.

Actually Cratic, it does seem like it's about Hendrix but i was listening to it and at the end of the song it has the first part of a Jim Morrison(The Doors) song, "Riders on the storm" so it might actually be about Jim Morrison well that's how i see it

The ending is the begining of Riders On The Storm. I do believe it's about Jim Morrison.

Considering the spelling is Jimmy instead of Jimi, I'd say it's about Morrison. Which keeps with a lot of the Doors/Morrison references actually in this song.
