Say It Ain't So Joe

Say it ain't so Joe please, say it ain't so

That's not what I wanna hear Joe and I got the right to know

Say it ain't so Joe please, say it ain't so

I'm sure they're tellin'us lies

Joe please, tell us it ain't so

They told us that our hero had played his trump card

He doesn't know how to go on

We're clinging to his charm and determined smile

But the good old days have gone

The image and the empire may be falling apart

The money has gotten scarce

One man's word held the country together

But the truth is getting fierce

Say it ain't so Joe please, say it ain't so

We've pinned our hopes on you Joe

And they're ruining our show

Oh baby don't you think we're gonna get burned

Oh baby don't you think we're gonna get burned

We're gone get turned, we're gonna get learned

We're gonna get burned

We're gone get turned, we're gonna get learned

We're gonna get burned, we're gonna get learned

We're gonna get burned

Say it ain't so Joe please, say it ain't so

That's not what I wanna hear Joe and I got the right to know

Say it ain't so Joe please, say it ain't so

I'm sure they're tellin'us lies

Joe please, tell us it ain't so

They told us that our hero had played his trump card

He doesn't know how to go on

We're clinging to his charm and determined smile

But the good old days have gone

Say it ain't so Joe please, say it ain't so

We've pinned our hopes on you Joe

And they're ruining our show

The image and the empire may be falling apart

The money has gotten scarce

One man's word held the country together

But the truth is getting fierce

Say it ain't so Joe please, say it ain't so

I'm sure they're tellin'us lies

Joe please, tell us it ain't so
