We're supposed to start work down on the river today.
|
And for Joe and me, it's some pretty good pay.
|
Now, I was countin' on him
|
To be at the dock by ten.
|
A week's pay says he's still at home,
|
'Cause the boy's in his own time zone
|
|
I'm a waitin' on Joe, whaddya know.
|
Time flies fast and he is slower than a.....
|
I told him over and over: "Now don't you be late."
|
Ah, but like always,
|
I'm just sittin' on go,
|
And waitin' on Joe.
|
Yeah.
|
|
Towboat's a leavin' 'cause it don't care.
|
What's not on board and who's not there.
|
Once that whistle blows,
|
Down the mighty river it rolls.
|
Man if I could be more like that,
|
I'd get on with my life and never look back.
|
|
Instead of waitin' on Joe, whaddya know.
|
Time flies fast and he is slower than a.....
|
I told him over and over: "Now don't you be late."
|
Ah, but like always,
|
I'm just sittin' on go,
|
And waitin' on Joe.
|
Waitin' on Joe.
|
|
And he's in a hurry,
|
'Cause he's runnin' behind.
|
Now I'm not one to worry,
|
But I've got a real bad feeling this time.
|
Oh, oh, oh, whoa.
|
|
'Cause sirens are crying all through this town.
|
And one old boy said "hey Joe never slowed down".
|
He tried to beat that morning train,
|
My life will never be the same,
|
I didn't even tell my brother goodbye,
|
Lord, I wish somehow he could send me a sign.
|
|
Yeah, I'm a-waitin' on Joe, whaddya know.
|
Time flies fast and he is slower than a.....
|
I told him over and over: "Now don't you be late."
|
Ah, but like always,
|
I'm just sittin' on go,
|
And waitin' on Joe.
|
Waitin' on Joe.
