johnny gave joe his first cigarette
and joe lit the filter and then he smoked the whole pack
and joe bought all the gas in johnnyâ? s old ford
he always said thatâ? s what friends were for.
when johnny married tina, joe married dee
two blonde-haired sisters from covington, kentucky
and in â? 67 johnny joined the corps
joe did too, but he never knew what for.
and tonight in this barroom heâ? s easinâ? his pain
heâ? s thinkinâ? of someone, but he wonâ? t say the name

and tina divorced him back in â? 83

well dee calls johnny every now and then
and talks about her children and her third husband

dee says, â? johnny that was so long ago.â?
tonight in this barroom heâ? s easinâ? his pain
heâ? s thinkinâ? of someone, but he wonâ? t say the name
