Smokey Joe Lyrics

First he hit the lights and then he hit the bottle

Then he jumped into his Chevy and then he kicked the throttle

85 flashed across the dash

He was swerving through the lanes

He was listening to Dylan while he whispered to the rain

Smokey Joe where did you go

Smokey Joe

Found his way to Mexico

Lonely soul, god only knows why he's gone

He just had to let it go

Rolling stone, always far from his home

Please just leave him be alone

Last he grabbed his phone just outside of Chula Vista

No one answered when he called and he cried because he missed her.

It was then when he set off under cover of the night

Heart was aching, hands were shaking when he disappeared from sight

Smokey Joe where did you go

Smokey Joe

Found his way to Mexico

Lonely soul, god only knows why he's gone

He just had to let it go

Rolling stone, always far from his home

Please just leave him be alone

We're gonna flee to the desert

We're gonna be something better

We're gonna see that letter come when we've gone

Smokey Joe

Smokey Joe where did you go

Smokey Joe

Found his way to Mexico

Lonely soul, god only knows why he's gone

He just had to let it go

Rolling stone, always far from his home

Please just leave him be alone

Smokey Joe where did you go

Smokey Joe

Found his way to Mexico
