QUICK JOE SMALL

KATSENETZ KATZ



Quick Joey Small went over the wall

With a ball an' a chain behind him

Quick Joey Small went over the wall

Send the dogs right out to find him.

In a striped prison suit with no room to move

He headed for the highway

With his chain still dragin'

He thumbed down a wagon

Said...well you're goin my way.

And they say now

Refrain:

Run Joey, Joey run run

The hounds are on your trail

Jump-up Jump-up

Run Joey, Joey run run

They're gonna send you back to jail.

Sheriff got a shotgun, he do

He'll fill you full of lead son, it's true.

He's also got a blackjack, he's mad

He'd bust your head with one wack,

Here I go now.

Run Joey, Joey run run the hounds are on your trail.

Sweet Mary Jane was goin' insane

When she heard of Joey's jail break

But she knew all the while 'cause

She sent him a file

Baked inside a fudge cake.

(Repeat Refrain)

Sheriff Jack Banes was a light on brains

But he knew one thing for sure

He took some toughs and a pair of handcuffs

And headed straight for Mary Jane's door

(Repeat Refrain)

(Repeat Refrain)
