My Joe

How can i love a man

When i know he don't want me

He'd been good

He'd been kind

He'd give up for that old roadside woman

But i can't drive him from my mind

My Joe

He was always my Joe

There was no one but me

Joe said that never could be

We was in love

And i reckon we showed it

From the way people talked

Reckon everyone knowed it

Kids on the street where we'd go

Used to yell at us

Cindy Lou belongs to Joe

Was true

And Joey belonged to Cindy Lou

I scared

Oh lord

I scared

I's like a leaf that's lost a tree

-

He got his self another woman

Did she feel his arms all around her

No lord i can't believe it so

No lord don't you let her keep my Joe

Make him throw her back

Where he found her, Joe

You said that both your arms

Was mine, remember

You said your arms was mine

I Is your gal

I was always your gal

There was no one but me

You said there never could be

We was in love

And i reckon we showed it

From the way people talked

Reckon everyone knowed it

Kids on the street where we'd go

Used to yell at us

Cindy Lou belongs to Joe

Lord oh lord look down on aren't i to see

how you can make Joe come home to me

Oh lord look down

Lead my Joe off the road

Where he's straying

Oh tell my man

Where to go

Oh lord i's calling

Ahhhhh you
