Walkaway Joe — текст песни (Trisha Yearwood)

(written by vince melamed, greg barnhill)



Momma told her baby, girl take it real slow

Girl told her momma hey I really gotta go

Hes waitin in the car

Momma said girl you wont get far

Thus are the dreams of an average jane

Ninety miles an hour down a lovers lane

On a tank of dreams

Oh if she couldve only seen

But fates got cards that it dont want to show

And that boys just



A walkaway joe

Born to be a leaver

Tell you from the word go, destined to deceive her

Hes a wrong kinda paradise

Shes gonna know it in a matter of time

That boys just a walkaway joe



Now just a little while into abilene

Pulls into a station and he robs it clean

Shes waitin in the car

Underneath the texaco star

She only wanted love didnt bargain for this

She cant help but love him for the way he is

Shes only seventeen

And there aint no reasoning

So shell ride this ride as far as it can go

Cause that boys just



A walkaway joe

Born to be a leaver

Tell you from the word go, destined to deceive her

Hes a wrong kinda paradise

Shes gonna know it in a matter of time

That boys just a walkaway joe



Somewhere in a roadside motel room

Alone in the silence she wakes up too soon

And reaches for his arm

But shell just keep reachin on

For the cold hard truth revealed what it had known

That boys just



A walkaway joe

Born to be a leaver

Tell you from the word go, destined to deceive her

Hes a wrong kinda paradise

Shes gonna know it in a matter of time

That boys just a walkaway joe
