Joe Lyrics - Tom Petty

My name's Joe, I'm the CEO 

Yeah I'm the man makes the big wheels roll 

I'm the hand on the green-light switch 

You get to be famous, I get to be rich 

Go get me a kid with a good lookin' face 

Bring me a kid can remember his place 

Some hungry poet son-of-a-bitch 

He gets to be famous, I get to be rich 

Or bring me a girl 

They're always the best 

You put 'em on stage and you have 'em undress 

Some angel whore who can learn a guitar lick 

Hey! Now that's what I call music!

Well they'll come lookin' for money when the public gets bored 

But we'll fight 'em with lawyers they could never afford 

Yeah I'll make her look like a spoiled little bitch 

She gets to be famous, I get to be rich 

Or bring me a girl 

They're always the best 

You put 'em on stage and you have 'em undress 

Some angel whore who can learn a guitar lick 

Hey! Now that's what I call music! 

So burned out Johnny thinks the books are shifty 

What good's that alchy to me when he's fifty? 

Well we could move catalog if he'd only die quicker 

Send my regards to the gig and a case of good liquor
