"Come Back Down Joe" lyrics

"Come Back Down Joe"

Lights from the motor bike shine
Through the bars on my face
As I walked through the alley
With a smile and guitar case
And I climb on the stairs
And reflect on the night we spent
And I'm thinking about what you said
And what it meant

You said, come back down
Come back down, joe

Go down to see her in the late afternoon
She ain't easy to find
You know shes always moving
Shes kicking back coffee with anthony telling jokes
Saying, girl if we don't go soon we're gonna miss the show

She says, come back down
Come back down, joe

Drive down to see if we can get on the list to play
So I go in walking like I own the place
And we wait our turn, yeah, but we don't wait long
Me and jenny, we sing our songs in a row
We're on a roll

She says, come back down
Come back down, joe
Come back down
Come back down

The scarecrows in full bloom tonight
As they take the stage
We say goodbye to zachari
And we get on our way
And on the way home I said tell me a story please
She says did you ever hear the one about the duck
That was lost in the street
Says I huffed and I puffed
And I shooed him away
Hell, I stopped the sunset in the middle of the day
I watched him grow wings, and fly away

There was come back down
Come back down, joe

The nights almost through
She wants to sing me a song
I love how you sing girl
But its just a little too long
Because there's only four seasons
And this ones almost gone
Yeah, these nights feel so good
But this one's almost gone

Says, come back down
Come back down joe
Come back down
Come back down
Come back down
Come back down joe, tomorrow
