Titre : Killer Joe
This here´s the story about Killer Joe
He´s a real bad cat, ´forget I told you so
Silk on the corners of his fancy threads
double breasted pin stripe coat top press
fast talkin´ good looking flim flam jive

why he´s the kind o´ cat that´ll make a dead man cry
so look out for Killer Joe!

Killer Joe - Killer Joe
Killer Joe - love dough
[Répéter)

Love of gold
Has made him very cold [Répéter Top)

I hit the big town an´he turned me roun´
He dazzled me with some pretty jive
prettier jive than I´ve ever heard from
any man alive
He called me "Baby," ´n "Honey"
Messed wit m´head, tol´ me he´d show me
a whole mess o´money

An´ what did I get?
That´s somethin´ I ain´t figured out yet

Each woman I meet is like a bead
that´s strung on a string
an´ I wear ´em like I´m wearin´ a necklace
Women love me, n´think lots of me
Really! How can they be so reckless
I tell ´em in front, that I do love money
So - later on - then they won´t get funny
When I tighten up an´ the scene gets heavy
times when I laugh they´re over,
now they´re gonna´ feel a draf´
Tell y´truth, if y´mus know
Only thing can save y´is t´bring me lots o´dough

(Background)
Poor girl - Pity the hick

Poor girl - Man, is he slick
Poor girl - Pity the poor chick

Stars were peepin´ low
An´ man dud she have eyes for that Joe
´N Joe was jivin´ with all of his lies
She felt he must o´meant it
Boy, the chick was in f´some surprise
Yep! ´N Joe ain´ ´bout t´let ´er slide
Git´er t´flyin´ high ´n wide
Then goof her carpet ride
She was cute, he had class
Y´knew he had ´er soon s´he made his pass

(Background)
(That´s Joe!)

Big cities are jungles an´ men´re like leopards

An´ women are lost lambs who´ve
strayed from kep´ herds
An´ them leopards - are real wolves
Actin´ jus´ like shepherds

Look out! Joe got his hook out
He´s lookin´ so han´some
Guaranteed trouble
Y´think you c´n stan´ some
He´ll furnish it double
So look out
