Little Guy Called Joe Lyrics - Stonewall Jackson

In a war torn land of poverty somewhere across the sea 

There's a little guy who's waiting and he looks a lot like me 

His hair is like the raven or the wings of a crow 

I don't know what they named him but I'm sure they called him Joe 

Just a little guy called Joe like so many more I know 

Left all alone somewhere across the sea 

I want him to have my name little Joe is mine to claim 

This little guy called Joe belongs to me 

His mother died to give him life the night my orders came 

I wanted to be with them but war's an evil thing 

Now he won't recognize me but I've got to let him know 

He means much more to someone than just a little guy called Joe 

Just a little guy called Joe like so many more I know 

Left all alone somewhere across the sea 

I want him to have my name little Joe is mine to claim 

This little guy called Joe belongs to me
