Joey — аккорды и текст

Joey Keys was from my neighborhood

Some would say that he was bad and

Joe thought that was good

Joey got the name "Keys" picking locks

He never really robbed no one

it sure amused the cops

Joey's parents owned a restaurant

After closing time they'd give us almost anything we'd want

I never cared that Joey Keys was slow

Though he couldn't read or write too well

but we'd talk all night long

Come on, come on, come on

What you gonna do with your life?

Oh, Come on, come on, come on

Chasing sparks in the nights

His old man said tomorrow

is a ride that goes nowhere

But I'll pull some strings, get blackbird wings

And break us out of there

Hey Joey

C'mon tell me 'bout your dreams

Tell me all the sights you're gonna see

Tell me who you're gonna be

Hey Joey

You're gonna kiss the girls goodnight

Sometimes you got to stand and fight

It'll be alright

We're gonna find

a better life

See Joe was 3 years younger to the day

Acting like a little brother

but became my ball and chain

I met this girl named Rhonda

she fell for me

She said, "I might learn to like him

but love ain't built for three"

Hey Joey

C'mon tell me 'bout your dreams

Tell me all the sights you're gonna see

Tell me who you're gonna be

Hey Joey

You're gonna kiss the girls goodnight

Sometimes you got to stand and fight

It'll be alright

Hey Joe

News gets around in this fading neighborhood

The old man lost the restaurant

He drinks more than he should

It's time for Joey keys to do some good

Pick the lock off our lives

let's get out of here like we always said we would

Hey Joey

C'mon tell me 'bout your dreams

Tell me all the sights you're gonna see

Tell me who you're gonna be

Hey Joey

You're gonna kiss the girls goodnight

Sometimes you got to stand and fight

It'll be alright

We're gonna find

a better life

Find a better life

Find a better life

Come on, come on, come on

What you gonna do with your life?

Oh, Come on, come on, come on

Chasing sparks in the nights

Tell the old man it's tomorrow

we're off to find somewhere

I pulled some strings, got blackbird wings

And broke us out of here...
