Joanne Songtext
von Bobby Jonz

Got a little story for ya
Listen real good y′all
I've been all over the world
Met all kinds of girls
But none sweet as Joanne

No
Joanne
Let me tell ya now
Listen


I was a little church boy
She was a little church girl
When we met
It was a whole different world
She was 15
I was 16 It was love at first sight
You know what I mean
I was her king
She was my queen
Oh the sweetest thing
I have ever seen

Joanne
Joanne
I still love calling her name
Joanne

Listen
We went our separate ways
A long time ago
You don′t have to ask what happened
You already know
I was doing wrong
But she blessed me with a son named Joe
I loved that woman
I don't care who knows

Joanne
Joanne
She's the sweetest thing I know
Joanne


Listen
Many times I ask her
To take me back
She says no, no, I can′t
Take that train down that track
She said
I can′t go walkin' across that ridge
I said there′s too much water
Under the bridge

Joanne
That's what she said to me
Joanne
She′s the sweetest thing
I've ever seen
Joanne

I just love callin′ her name
Let me tell ya somethin' new
She's a church mother
And a caregiver
Joanne
A Louisiana girl
And I′m a Louisiana boy
I love calling her name
Let me say it one more time
Joanne
Joanne
