Joey's Back in Town - Billy Walker, Roy Orbison, Waylon Jennings

When I woke up this morning everything seemed wrong

I’d realized my greatest fear the one I loved was gone

She left me in a world of emptiness

A-wondering what happened to my happiness

The reason for it all was in a letter that I found

All she said and all I read was Joey’s back in town

Joey’s back in town that’s what she said

Today she let me down wish I was dead

I was standing in for him I know but still I hung around

A-hoping she might love me knowing she would leave me

Anytime that Joey’s back in town

(Anytime that Joey’s back in town)

Joey’s back in town that’s what she said

Today she let me down wish I was dead

I was standing in for him I know but still I hung around

A-hoping she might love me knowing she would leave me

Anytime that Joey’s back in town
