Eddy Raven Joe Knows How to Live lyrics

Blue Monday morning at the factory gate
It's almost time to clock in
Boys are all betting that Joe wouldn't show
They'd seen him over the weekend

He had four new tyres on that old Cadillac
Betty, the waitress had some clothes in the back
Dashboard full of road maps of Mexico
Joe knows how to live

He said, "Women are made to love
Money's made to spend
Life is one thing, buddy, you will never live again"
Oh, I got to admit it, Joe sure knows how to live

Now they'll be down at the ocean
He and Betty stretched out somewhere
Only blue in his life is the blue moonlight
Bouncing off Betty's blond hair

Oh and I can just see 'em rolling 'round on the sand
I never thought I was a jealous man
When I think what he's doing and what I am not
Lord, I'm jealous a lot


Because women are made to love
Money's just made to spend
Life is something, buddy, you will never live again
Hell I got to admit it, Joe sure knows how to live

Betty's back home with her mother
Joe's back on the assembly line
But he brings in his pictures and his Mexican hat
Just to remind us sometimes

You say women are made to love, I know
And money's still made to spend
Life is something, buddy, you might never live again
Hell, I hate to admit it, but Joe sure knows how to live
Oh, I hate to admit it, but damn Joe knows how to live

Man, they'd fired me
I'll be back rollin' in one of those down the Salavation Armies
Stealing them hubcaps
Reckon Joe's wife knows about that
I don't think so
