Joe the Lion Lyrics - David Bowie

1 Joe the lion

2 Went to the bar

3 A couple of drinks on the house an' he said

4 "Tell you who you are if you nail me to my car"

5 Boy

6 Thanks for hesitating

7 This is the kiss off

8 Boy

9 Thanks for hesitating

10 You'll never know the real story

11 Just a couple of dreams

12 You get up and sleep

13 You can buy god it's Monday

14 Slither down the greasy pipe

15 So far so good no one saw you

16 Hobble over any freeway

17 You will be like your dreams tonight

18 You get up and sleep

19 You get up and sleep

20 Joe the lion

21 Made of iron

22 Joe the lion

23 Went to the bar

24 A couple of drinks on the house an' he was

25 A fortune teller he said

26 "Nail me to my car and I'll tell you who you are"

27 Joe the lion, yeah yeah

28 Went to the bar, yeah yeah

29 A couple of dreams and he was

30 A fortune teller he said

31 "Nail me to my car tell you who you are"

32 You get up and sleep

33 The wind blows on your check

34 The day laughs in your face

35 Guess you'll buy a gun

36 You'll buy it secondhand

37 You'll get up and sleep

38 Joe the lion made of iron (repeat ad inf.)
