I come home from working hard
|
I pull up to my yard and there's a man I used to know
|
He used to love me right
|
But then we had a little fight and now he's on parole
|
|
Well he's lookin' mighty mean
|
He's like to cause a scene
|
So just hit reverse and oull out slow
|
|
And don't pay no mind to Joe, 'cause Joey don't treat me good no more
|
No, don't pay no mind to Joe, 'cause Joey don't treat me good no more
|
|
He wears his shirt untucked
|
He's got one eye covered up and he's got a big 'ol 44
|
He likes to drink 'til late, then he'll break down your gate and he'll throw you to the floor
|
When he looks me in the eye, he'll hit me 'till I cry, he's trying to get inside my door
|
|
But don't pay no mind to Joe, 'cause Joey don't treat me good no more
|
No, don't pay no mind to Joe, 'cause Joey don't treat me good no more
|
|
You can't even stomp and shout 'cause it's all over now and there ain't nothing left to say
|
But don't pay no mind to Joe, 'cause Joey don't treat me good no more
|
No, don't pay no mind to Joe, 'cause Joey don't treat me good no more
|
|
He saw me with another man, but he did not understand that I grew up with him in the same crib
|
Joey started flaming red, he didn't hear a word I said and now my brother's got a broken rib
|
|
Well, the judge and jury all agreed
|
That Joey did a dirty deed
|
And 50 years is what order said
|
|
But don't pay no mind to Joe, 'cause Joey don't treat me good no more
|
No, don't pay no mind to Joe, 'cause Joey don't treat me good no more
|
|
He didn't understand, the judge raised up his hand and said "You'd better leave that girl alone"
|
But don't pay no mind to Joe, 'cause Joey don't treat me good no more
|
No, don't pay no mind to Joe, 'cause Joey don't treat me good no more
|
|
He's a bad man, pay no mind , pay no mind
|
