Run Joe Lyrics

Loey, Loey, Loey, Loey, Loey-boy
Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey
Mo and Joe run the candy store
Tellin' fortune behind a door
The cops grabbed Mo, and as Joe ran out
Brother Mo he began to shout
Run Joe, hey 'The Man's" at the door
Run Joe "The Man" he won't let me go, Run Joe
Run Joe, run as fast as you can, Run Joe de police holdin' me hand'
Loey, Loey, Loey, Loey, Loey
Hide the crystal ball by de fence, So dey won't find no evidence
Get somebody to tell a lie, So I'll have me an alibi
Hurry home and get in your bed, Call the doctor and tie your head
Get somebody to go my bail, Don't want to stay in that rotten jail
And, Run Joe, while the man's at the door, Run Joe
The Man he won't let me go, Run Joe, Run Joe, as fast as you can
Run Joe, these people is holdin' me' hand
Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey
When they take me before the Sarge
I am going to deny the charge
When the judge ask me how I plee
Not guilty judge, most decidely
You can see judge, ... At-the-glance
I'm just a victim of circumstance
Run Joe, while the man at the door
Run Joe, the man he won't let me go
Run Joe, Run Joe as fast as you can
Run Joe this police holding me' hand
Ain'tcha momma don' told ya?
Ain'tcha she don' scold ya' and scold ya?
Ain'tcha she don' warned ya' before Joe?
If they capture, you run Joe
Run Joe, Run Joe, Run Joe, Run Joe
Ohhhhhh........ those police gonna be catching up with Joe
Joe run too slow
