Joey and Me

Bon Jovi - Joey



Joey Keys was from my neighborhood

Some would say that he was bad

And Joe thought that was good

Joey got the name "Keys" picking locks

He never really robbed no one

It sure amused the cops

Joey's parents owned a restaurant

After closing time they'd give us

Almost anything we'd want

I never cared that Joey Keys was slow



Though he couldn't read or write too well

But we'd talk all night long.


Come on, come on, come on


What you gonna do with your life?


Come on, come on, come on


Chasing sparks in the nights


His old man said tomorrow is a ride that goes nowhere


But I'll pull some strings


Get blackbird wings


And break us out of there


Hey Joey


C'mon tell me 'bout your dreams


Tell me all the sights you're gonna see


Tell me who you're gonna be
