|
Blue Monday morning at the factory gate |
|
Almost time to clock in |
|
The boys are all betting that Joe wouldn't show |
|
They'd seen him over the weekend |
|
He had four new tires on that Cadillac |
|
Betty the waitress had some clothes in the back |
|
Dashboard full of road maps of Mexico, Joe knows how to live |
|
CHORUS |
|
He said women were made to love, money is made to spend |
|
Life is something, baby, you will never win again |
|
Oh, I've got to admit it, Joe sure knows how to live |
|
By now they'll be down at the ocean |
|
He and Betty stretched out somewhere |
|
The only blue in his life is the blue moonlight |
|
Bouncing off Betty's blonde hair |
|
Oh I can just see em rolling around in the sand |
|
I never thought I was a jealous man |
|
But when I think what he's doing and what I'm not, oh, I'm jealous a lot |
|
(chorus) |
|
Now Betty's back home with her mother |
|
Joe's back on the assembly line |
|
But he brings his pictures and his Mexican hat |
|
Just to remind us sometimes |
|
(chorus) |
|
Oh, I hate to admit it, Joe sure knows how to live |
|
Man, they would have fired me if I'd done that |
|
Another thing man |
|
I don't see how he got Betty away from her mother |
|
That ol' girl watches her all the time |
|
You think Joe's wife know about that yet? |
