‘Darby and Joan’ is an old British term for an elderly old-fashioned married couple, who often live an eventful life in retirement.
From the lyrics, it sound this Darby and Joan lives together is far from uneventful.
The song ends with:
The real Darby and Joan
Stating an old couples aren’t as bo...
(One, two, three, four)
Sure is a cup will fill you up
But a drop is all you got (Oh yeah)
Music when others refuse it
Just teach your eggs and shut up
Call the lifeboat doctor
We ride rocket radio boom
I think she's trying to love him
Darby and Joan
(Sure is)
Joan she didn't care
In the greenest envy Darby bewar
We don't take kindly to love advice
When we are falling so lovely through the air
Touch me where you want to
It only happens when all alone
I think she nearly loves him
Darby and Joan (Ohhh)
(Hmmhmm)
(Hmmhmm hmm hmm, hmmhmm)
Real Darby and Joan
The real Darby and Joan
The real Darby and Joan
The real Darby and Joan
