George Strait - Come on Joe lyrics

rate me

Well, it's a long, hot night

And the stars are shining kinda extra bright

Sitting on the back porch glidin'

Whetting my appetite.

Well, I'm a six-pack high

And start missing the light of my baby's eyes

Wasn't it beautiful

The kind of a soul they said would never die.

Well, it's muggy in the shack and the backwoods are black

'Cause the clouds hid the moon away

The light from my cigarette flickers in the dark

The only way she knows I'm here

Then suddenly the sounds of the fiddles and accordions

Sweetly begin to play and I can almost hear her sweet voice say.

Chorus:

Come on Joe, just count to ten

Pull yourself together again

And come on Joe, you gotta get hold of this mood you're in

Come on Joe, you gotta be strong

You're still young and life goes on to carry on

'Til we're together again.

Hey, I know she's right

But it's hard to fight when you're hurtin' so

I tried to walk out of that door before but I just can't go

With the tears and the laughter in every rafter in every room

Wasn't it beautiful

Wasn't it the kind of happiness and glow.

Chorus:

Come on Joe, just count to ten

Pull yourself together again

And come on Joe, you gotta get hold of this mood you're in

Come on Joe, you gotta be strong

You're still young and life goes on to carry on

'Til we're together again.

Come on Joe.

Hey, come on Joe.

To carry on 'til we're together again...
