EVERYTHING WAS IN THE PICKUP TRUCK
HE PACKED A BAG AND MAMA SAID GOOD LUCK
IN CALIFORNIA, CALIFORNIA,
PAPA TOLD HIM THAT HE SHOULDN'T GO
SAID, "I DON'T WANNA SAY I TOLD YOU SO"
BUT, JOE I WARNED YA! JOE I WARNED YOU
JOE, DID YOU KNOW?
DID YOU THINK ABOUT YOUR CHANCES OUT THERE?
ARE YOU SCARED?
WHAT DO YA THINK YOU'RE GONNA FIND?
DID YOUR MIND GO A-MISSING?
USE YOUR SENSES! OH JOE,
DON'T YOU KNOW THE WORLD ISN'T KIND?
AND THE FURTHER YOU GET
AND THE DEEPER YOU GO
THE MORE YOU WILL FIND YOURSELF ALONE
THE HIGHER YOU FLY, THE HARDER YOU FALL
SO YOU NEVER LOOKED BACK
AND YOU WENT ON YOUR WAY
AND I NEVER TRIED TO MAKE YOU STAY
BUT THE LONGER YOU'RE STANDING PROUD AND TALL
THE HARDER YOU WILL FALL
JOE WAS NEVER LIKE THE OTHER BOYS
WHILE THEY WERE DRINKIN' BEER AND MAKING NOISE
JOE WAS QUIET, SAD AND QUIET
SUZIE PRAYED THAT JOEY MIGHT PROPOSE
BUT ALL HE LEFT HER WAS A NOTE HE WROTE
THAT SAID, "I'M HIDING, I'M TIRED OF HIDING"
JOE, DID YOU KNOW
THAT SHE LOVED YOU MORE THAN BREATHING THE AIR?
IS IT FAIR TO LEAVE HER TO CRY ALONE? OKAY,
RUN AWAY! BUT REMEMBER WHO YOU'RE LEAVING OH JOE,
DON'T YOU KNOW THAT YOU'RE GONNA FIND
THAT THE FURTHER YOU GET
AND THE DEEPER YOU GO
THE MORE YOU WILL FIND YOURSELF ALONE
THE HIGHER YOU FLY, THE HARDER YOU FALL
SO YOU NEVER LOOKED BACK
AND YOU WENT ON YOUR WAY
AND I NEVER TRIED TO MAKE YOU STAY
BUT THE LONGER YOU'RE STANDING PROUD AND TALL
THE HARDER YOU WILL FALL
GUESS IT'S BEEN ABOUT A YEAR OR SO
SINCE ANYBODY HEARD A WORD FROM JOE
I HOPE HE'S HAPPY, SAFE AND HAPPY
NOW I THINK ABOUT HIM EVERY DAY
AND HOW I NEVER GOT THE CHANCE TO SAY
I'M SO SORRY, I'M SO SORRY
JOE, DID YOU KNOW
THAT WE NEVER MEANT TO HURT YOU OR YOUR PRIDE?
JOE I TRIED, BUT I NEVER UNDERSTOOD YOUR PAIN
JOE I PRAY, THAT THE LORD AND ALL THE ANGELS KEEP YOU SAFE
JOE I PRAY YOU STAY BY THEIR SIDE
CAUSE THE FURTHER YOU GET
AND THE DEEPER YOU GO
THE MORE YOU WILL FIND YOURSELF ALONE
THE HIGHER YOU FLY, THE HARDER YOU FALL
SO YOU NEVER LOOKED BACK
AND YOU WENT ON YOUR WAY
AND I NEVER TRIED TO MAKE YOU STAY
BUT THE LONGER YOU'RE STANDING PROUD AND TALL
THE HARDER YOU WILL FALL
THE HARDER YOU WILL FALL
