Joe

I got a job and my name's joe
Spend my days at the texaco
Never show up late
Never show up drunk
'Cause when I get half-lit, I'm a loaded gun
Made a couple wrong turns
Did county time
I do everything I can to stay between the lines

I got a couple good buddies that all stop in
Say: It's good to see ya brother, man, how ya been?
I can't complain, I'm doin' alright
Sleepin' pretty good, stayin' dry
I thank the lord every morning with a sweet amen
For how far I come, from where I been
So here's to good days, better tomorrows
And a light at the end of the bottle

Some battlеs are fought on foreign shores
Somе are fought behind closed doors
Some fall from grace
Some lose their wings
Some find the peace salvation brings

I got a couple good buddies that all stop in
Say: It's good to see ya brother, man, how ya been?
I can't complain, I'm doin' alright
Sleepin' pretty good, stayin' dry
I thank the lord every morning with a sweet amen
For how far I come, from where I been
So here's to good days, better tomorrows
And a light at the end of the bottle

Here's to good days
Here's to living
And here's to old sins
Bein' forgiven

And a buncha good buddies that all stop in
Say: It's good to see ya brother, man, how ya been?
I can’t complain, I'm doing alright
Sleepin' pretty good, stayin' dry
I thank the lord every morning with a sweet amen
For how far I come, from where I've been
So here's to good days and better tomorrows
And a light at the end of the bottle

At the end of the bottle
