Little Joe (2004 Reissue Bonus Track)

(album: Liberty Belle And The Black Diamond Express - 1986)

Everyone knows everybody else
Let's skip introductions
Talk on little Joe
His mother left for me to mind
A 100 a week
A lovely guy of 26
Loves only the lonely
Little Joe
Oh, no here he comes
Laughing with an old joke

Don't you cry
Never do a days work
Nothing of value will ever get hurt

Joe's no trouble, he ran for mayor
The mafia car bombed my car
I said you're not running for mayor
Gave up wishing
Took up hoping
Hoping Joe will settle down
Shoe store
A movie house
Something like
Something like a French comedy
He's patronised by gentle souls
Their best intensions are their own

Don't you cry
Never do a days work
Nothing of value will ever get hurt

I've always been a man of the track
Took Joe down to the track
So here we sit
Joe and I
Joe and I
Little Joe

Don't you cry
Never do a days work
Nothing of value will ever get hurt

The whole world
Let's get our balance in the mid-night air
