Chorus
Look out, look out, look out for Jimmy Valentine
For he’s a pal of mine, a sentimental crook
With a touch that lingers, in his sand-papered fingers
He can find the combination of your pocketbook
Look out, look out, for when you see his lantern shine
That’s the time to jump right up and shout “HELP!”
He’d steal a horse and cart
He’d even steal a girlie’s heart
When Jimmy Valentine gets out
