lyrics

Ode To Joe
(A. Calvano / M. Pitman)

Joe was man, who worked on the land
Saving all his pennies for his wife
Some of them would say he worked everyday
Scrounging was the way of his life

I’m saying Joe, where did you go?

Coming home one night, Joey got a fright
His wife was gone and all was lost
Crying with the sad, his wife was all he had
Rolling and a cursing in the dust

I’m saying Joe, where did you go?
I’m saying Joe, where did you go?

Joey wanted fun, he went and brought a gun
Shooting everybody in sight
He showed no remorse for his lonely divorce
Robbing from the poor and from the blind

I’m saying Joe, where did you go?
I’m saying Joe, where did you go?

Late one August night, a town stood in fright
They heard that Joe was to come
They tucked themselves in tight, they didn't want a fight
But old man Joe didn’t even come

His body they did see, against a lonely tree
His favourite gun resting in his hand
Yeah on one bended knee, he started to believe
And bang! There’s blood in the sand.

I’m saying Joe, where did you go?
I’m saying Joe, where did you go?
