|
I just got a letter from a very dear pal
|
He wrote to say he's sorry for stealin' my gal
|
|
Pin a medal on Joey
|
He stole your love from me
|
Pin a medal on Joey
|
He set my poor heart free
|
No more cryin' about a love that was untrue
|
Oh-ho, oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho
|
|
Hip hooray for that Joey
|
For bein' good to me
|
Hip hooray for that Joey
|
He took my misery
|
No more heartache will I be givin' you
|
Oh-ho, oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho
|
|
CHORUS
|
Told him all about you
|
Told him how you lied
|
But Joey won't believe me
|
He thinks I'm a jealous guy-eye
|
|
Pin a medal on Joey
|
For bein' such a fool
|
Pin a medal on Joey
|
He won a heart that's cruel
|
He'll be sorry when you break his heart in two
|
Oh-ho, oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho
|
|
Told him all about you
|
Told him how you lied
|
But Joey won't believe me
|
He thinks I'm a jealous guy-eye
|
|
Pin a medal on Joey
|
For bein' such a fool
|
Pin a medal on Joey
|
He won a heart that's cruel
|
He'll be sorry when you break his heart in two
|
Oh-ho, oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho
|
|
Pin a medal on Joey, hey, hey, hey, hey,
|
Hip hooray for that Joey oh, oh, oh, oh
|
FADE
|
Pin a medal on Joey, hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah
