My Joe, he was always my Joe.
There was no one but me.
Joe said there never could be.
We was in love,
and I reckon we showed it
by the way people talked.
Reckon everyone knew it.
Kids on the street where we'd go
used to yell at us,
Cindy Lou belongs to Joe
Not alone, you knew that was true
And Joey be longed to Cindy Lou
Are you scared, oh lord, are you scared,
as like a leaf that lost its tree,
as a lone, lord, as a lone?
He's got himself an other woman,
now she got his arms all
around her.
No, Lord, I can't believe it's so.
No, no, don't you let her keep my Joe.
Aunt Joe, throw her back where
you found her.
You said that all your arms was mine,
dreaming far.
You said your arm s was mine,
always, your gal.
I was always your gal,
there was no one but me.
You said that never could be
We was in love
And I reckon we showed it
By the way people talked
Reckon everyone knew it
Kids on the street where we'd go
Used to yell at us
Cindy Lou belongs to Joe
Lord, oh Lord, look down and try to see
How you can make Joe
come home to me
O Lord, look down, lift my joe,
off the road we stream.
Oh, tell my man where to go,
oh, Lord, I call him. on you.
