Gary Brooker - Say It Ain't So Joe lyrics

rate me

(Murray Head)

Say it ain't so Joe

Please, say it ain't so

That's not what I want to hear Joe

And I got a right to know

Say it ain't so Joe

Please, say it ain't so

I'm sure they're telling us lies Joe

please, tell us it ain't so

They told us that our hero

Had played his trump card

He doesn't know how to go on

We're clinging to his charm & determined smile

But the good old days have gone.

The image and the empire may be falling apart

The money has gotten scarce

one mans word held the country together

But the truth is getting fierce.

Say it ain't so Joe

Please say it ain't so

We've pinned our hopes on you Joe

And they're ruining our show

Oh baby don't you think we're gonna get burned

Oh baby don't you think we're gonna get burned

We're gonna get turned, we're gonna get learned

We're gonna get burned

We're gonna get burned

We're gonna get burned
