"Joe By The Book" lyrics

"Joe By The Book"

In a tail spin with the mistress of the black top
Drew, my God, who'd you fool to borrow this race car?
I can't get it to start again, there's a pigeon in the fan
Would you lend me a hand?
We'll push it up to Shamrock and have Joe take a look
They call him "Joe by the Book," and I trust him
He fixed my grandma's Cadillac
She threw two rods
And he didn't even charge her for the block
He'd accidentally ordered two back in '95
"Ain't much to modify
The engine mounts and manifold, got the parts in the yard"
Even lent her a car
Would you yank the wheel real hard?
Dammit Drew, you should get paid to waste my time
You're the professor of the nickel and dime
I'll see you tomorrow, say "hey" to the girls
Would you bring me that shirt I lent you?
