Hey! Joe Songtext
von Willy DeVille

Uno dos, uno dos tres

Hey Joe, where you goin′ with that money in your hand?
I say, "Hey Joe, where you goin' with that money in your hand?"
Well, I′m gonna see my woman
You know, I heard she done messed around with some other man, I heard she did
You know, I'm goin' down town, I′m gonna buy me a blue steel Forty Four
You know, I′m goin' down town and I′m gonna buy me a blue steel Forty Four
I'm gonna catch up with that girl, she won′t be messing around on me no more


Well, I say, "Hey Joe, where you goin' with that money in your hand?
Hey, hey Joe, where you goin′ with that money in your hand?
I'm gona shoot my woman, I found her messin' around with some other man
Hey Joe, I heard you shot your old lady down
Hey Joe, you know, I heard that you shot your old lady down
Yes I did, ′cause I caught her messin′ around, messin' around, messin′ around town
Well alright

I said, "Hey Joe, you better lay low and get outta town"
I said, "Hey Joe, where you gonna run to now?"
He said, "I'm goin′ down town and I'm gonna get me a pasport see?" (Oh si)
Well, I′m goin' down south, way down Mexico way
And there ain't no hangman gonna put no noose around me
Just ′cause I shot her, just ′cause I shot her down, alright

Well, I'm goin′ down south, way down Mexico way
I'm goin′ down south, where a man can be free
No there ain't no hangman gonna put no noose around me
Just ′cause I shot her down
No there ain't no hangman
