"Joe Ball Was His Name" lyrics

There's an old horror film named Eaten Alive, which is very grim
About a man who fed his guests to his pet gator who lived in a pool by the Inn
This morbid movie plot is based on a real-life story that is non-fiction
About a man named Joe Ball, who owned a bar that he called The Sociable Inn

Joe Ball was his name
Joe Ball, Joe Ball was his name
Joe Ball was his name
And what he did to waitresses was quite a shame
Joe Ball was his name
Joe Ball, Joe Ball was his name
Joe Ball was his name
And what he did to waitresses was quite insane
Joe Ball was his name

The Sociable Inn had a special feature unlike all the other establishments
Joe Ball had a cement pond that contained pet gators at the back of the Inn
He also hired pretty waitresses that drew men to The Sociable Inn
He fed his gators horse meat and dead waitresses that had worked for him

Joe Ball was his name
Joe Ball, Joe Ball was his name
Joe Ball was his name
And what he did to waitresses was quite a shame
Joe Ball was his name
Joe Ball, Joe Ball was his name
Joe Ball was his name
And what he did to waitresses was quite insane
Joe Ball was his name

The families of the missing waitresses were concerned about their daughters
But Joe Ball killed and chopped them up and fed them to all of his pet gators
The police then questioned him about the disappearance of his waitresses
When they came to arrest him, Joe Ball took a gun and shot himself in the head

Joe Ball was his name
Joe Ball, Joe Ball was his name
Joe Ball was his name
And what he did to waitresses was quite a shame
Joe Ball was his name
Joe Ball, Joe Ball was his name
Joe Ball was his name
And what he did to waitresses was quite insane
Joe Ball was his name
