Eddy Raven - Joe Knows How to Live Lyrics

 

Almost time to clock in

The boys were bettin'

That Joe wouldn't show

Cause they had seen him over the weekend

He had four new tires on that old Cadillac

Betty the waitress and some clothes in the back

A dashboard full of roadmaps to Mexico

Yeah, Joe knows how to live

He said, "Women were made to love

Money is made to spend

Life is something, buddy

You will never live again"

Oh, I've got to admit it

Joe sure knows how to live

And now they'll be down at the ocean

He and Betty stretched out somewhere

The only blue in his life

Is the blue moonlight

Bouncin' off Betty's blonde hair

Woah, and I can just see 'em rollin' round on the sand

I never thought I was a jealous man

But when I think what he's doin' that I'm not

Oh, I'm jealous a lot

He said, "Women were made to love

Money is made to spend

Life is something, buddy

You will never live again"

Oh, I've got to admit it

Joe sure knows how to live

Now Betty's back home with her mother

Joe's back on the assembly line

But he brings in his pictures

And his Mexican hat

Just to remind us sometime

Women were made to love

Money is made to spend

Life is something, buddy

You will never live again

Oh, I've got to admit it

Joe sure knows how to live

Yeah, I hate to admit it

Joe sure knows how to live

They would have fired me if I'd done that

Another thing I don't see is how Betty got away from Mama

You think Joe's wife knows about that yet?
