Joe's Place Lyrics
There's a place called Joe's
Where some of us go
When the hard working day is through,
Through the neon and smoke
We laugh and tell jokes
And throw down a cold one or two
There's a jukebox that's full of records
By Willie, Haggard and Jones
There's a picture of Elvis and ol' John Wayne
Hanging side by side on the wall
<I>Chorus:</I>
Down at Joe's Place
It's still the old way
Pickled eggs in a jar
And a blue ribbon sign
Ol' boys and bankers
Sitting side by side
Down at Joe's Place
Down at Joe's Place
Along about midnight
A few hangers on
Are still hanging out at the bar
If the telephone rings
It's an understood thing
Joe don't know where they are
At a table in the corner
There's a young man and an empty chair
His head in his hands, tears in his eyes
And a girlfriend's ring lying there
<I>Chorus</I>
Pickled eggs in a jar
And a blue ribon sing
Ol boys and bankers
Sitting side by side
Down at Joe's Place
Down at Joe's Place
Joe's Place
Let's go to Joe's Place
Where some of us go
When the hard working day is through,
Through the neon and smoke
We laugh and tell jokes
And throw down a cold one or two
There's a jukebox that's full of records
By Willie, Haggard and Jones
There's a picture of Elvis and ol' John Wayne
Hanging side by side on the wall
Down at Joe's Place
It's still the old way
Pickled eggs in a jar
And a blue ribbon sign
Ol' boys and bankers
Sitting side by side
Down at Joe's Place
Down at Joe's Place
A few hangers on
Are still hanging out at the bar
If the telephone rings
It's an understood thing
Joe don't know where they are
At a table in the corner
There's a young man and an empty chair
His head in his hands, tears in his eyes
And a girlfriend's ring lying there
And a blue ribon sing
Ol boys and bankers
Sitting side by side
Down at Joe's Place
Down at Joe's Place
Joe's Place
Let's go to Joe's Place

I know of a place in my hometown that reminds me of "Joe's Place"
Does this guy make a BAD song????
This song is just great to listen to at anytime, any mood that you're in. And to answer you Mommacat; nope. I don't think he even has one song I don't like.
