Lyrics
Joeys On The Street
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
As he combed his hair
The night called out his name
Like every hero he has to brag and show his fame
Well Joeys got to prove he's the leader of the pack
But once you start a running
There ain't no turning back
He's the kid that cried wolf and got the blame
So Joeys on the street again
But his freedoms running out
When you play with fire
One tear can put it out
Everybody wants Joey to act his age
But like an eagle he's locked in a parrots cage
Well Joeys got to prove he's the leader of the pack
But once you start a running
There ain't no turning back
He's the kid that cried wolf and got the blame
So Joeys on the street again
But his freedoms running out
When you play with fire
One tear can put it out
So he winks to the mirror
And brides don't wear his ring
Even if I could I'm still there try again
Well Joeys got to prove he's the leader of the pack
But once you start a running
There ain't no turning back
He's the kid that cried wolf and got the blame
So Joeys on the street again
But his freedoms running out
When you play with fire
One tear can put it out
