Joey

Bon Jovi

1. Joey keys was from my neighbourhood
   some would say he was bad
   joe thought he was good
   they said he got the name keys from picking locks
   he never really robbed no one it sure amused the cops

2. Joeys parents owned the restaurant
   after closing time theyd give us
   almost anything we would want
   i never cared that joey keys was slow
   though he couldnt read or write well
   weed talk all night long

X: Come on come on come on
   what you gonna do with your life
   oh come on come on come on
   chasing sparks in the nights
   his old man said tomorrow
   is a ride that goes no where
   but ill pull some strings get blackbird wings
   and break us out of here

R: Hey joey come on tell me about your dreams
   tell me all the sights youre gonna see
   tell me who youre gonna be
   hey joey gonna kiss the girls tonight
   sometimes you got to stand and fight
   it will be alright gonna find a better life

3. See joe was 3 years younger to the day
   but became my ball and chain
   i met this girl named rhonda she fell for me
   she said i might learn to like him but love aint built for 3

R: Hey joey come...


*: News gets around in this fading neighborhood
   the old man lost the restaurant
   he drinks more than he should
   its time for joey keys to do some good
   pick the lock off our lives
   lets get out of here like we always said we would


R: Hey joey come...

X: Come on...

   Tell the old man its tomorrow
   were off to find somewhere
   i pulled some strings got blackbird wings
   and broke us out of here
