Joe the lion   Went to the bar   A couple of drinks on the house an' he said   "Tell you who you are if you nail me to my car"      Boy   Thanks for hesitating   This is the kiss off      Boy   Thanks for hesitating   You'll never know the real story   Just a couple of dreams    You get up and sleep      You can buy god it's Monday   Slither down the greasy pipe   So far so good no one saw you   Hobble over any freeway   You will be like your dreams tonight      You get up and sleep   You get up and sleep   Joe the lion   Made of iron      Joe the lion   Went to the bar   A couple of drinks on the house an' he was   A fortune teller he said   "Nail me to my car and I'll tell you who you are"      Joe the lion, yeah yeah   Went to the bar, yeah yeah   A couple of dreams and he was   A fortune teller he said   "Nail me to my car tell you who you are"      You get up and sleep   The wind blows on your check   The day laughs in your face   Guess you'll buy a gun   You'll buy it secondhand   You'll get up and sleep      Joe the lion made of iron (repeat ad inf.)
