Life's to short, ain't looking back no more
Been there, done it, seen it all before
Looking up, straight ahead
Get up and go, Good-bye Lil' Joe!

Had a fight Lil', Joe got mad
Say's I took the only thing he had
Looking up, straight ahead
Get up and go, Good-bye Lil' Joe!

Said good-bye, ain't coming back no more
You ain't nothing but a hound dog
Crying at my door

I'm Looking up, straight ahead
Get up and go, Good-bye Tupelo!
Get up and go, Good-bye Lil' Joe!
See you Joe
