Joey (& His Crooked Hustle) Songtext

Joey likes to name drop
He really wants you to think that he′s in demand
He'll meet you down at the bar for drinks
He′ll be the first to see you
And the last to shake your hand

And he's always got his ear to the ground
He knows the latest rage
And he's always looking sharp
Joey knows all the world′s a stage

And when you start to shine
Joey shake your hand
Say he knew it all the time
Joey don′t know right from wrong
Stab you in the back
Just to get to the head of the line

And he wants to be a star himself
That's why he′s got the blues
Because one day Joey knows
He's going to run out of people to use


And I said...
He′s only going to make things harder on himself
One day, cross the wrong people
Could be bad for his health
He's only going to make things harder on himself
But he′s ready to stake his life
For a little wealth

Joey's got a line
It's the same old rap he uses every time
He′s got his eye on a female jewel
Well, after all she′s only looking for a chance to shine
And he's always getting drinks for free
He knows everybody′s name
But he'll use the little girl
He′s only looking for a piece of fame

And I said...
He's only going to make things harder on himself
One day, cross the wrong people
Could be bad for his health
He′s only going to make things harder on himself
But he's ready to stake his life
For a little wealth


Joey's got a silent partner
He′s got associates from the underworld
They gave Joey a bag of money to launder
But when the deal went south he had to break his word
And now he′s on the run they say
Trying to stay alive
He learned to walk the walk
But he couldn't talk the jive

And you know...
He′s only going to make things harder on himself
One day, cross the wrong people
Could be bad for his health
He's only going to make things harder on himself
But he′s ready to stake his life
For a little wealth
