About KC Expertise What`s the Brown M&M`s story about? How in the world does Eddie play that!? What the heck is on the cover of "Fair Warning?" Does Alex really need three or four bass drums? Where did they dig up David Lee Roth, anyway? Ask away, and I`ll try to help you become one with all things Van Halen.
Experience 13,534 repeat listens of "Women and Children First." I think I'm starting to understand it now, but I might be wrong.
Question who is top jimmy? what band are they talking about in the song?
Answer Howdy Stephanie -
Nobody's really sure what was going on in David Lee's head when he wrote the majority of his lyrics...all we know is that Top Jimmy really cooks and he really swings.
Seriously, though, it sounds to me like DLR was just writing about an idealized front man...half Elvis, half lounge act - heck, it appears David was writing about himself, to be honest.
I don't think he was writing about anyone in particular, though. Good question!
