Don Williams - Harry And Joe lyrics
[Don Williams - Harry And Joe lyrics]
Enjoying the golden years of their lives
But life doesn't always give
Back what it owes
Suddenly there was just, Harry and Joe
Now Joe'd been a teacher gentile and calm
Harry, a teamster with a fuse like a bomb
Thrown in together by life's crazy whims
They're pepper and salt like
Their unshaven chins
Harry and Joe lean to and fro
They lean on each other wherever they go
Two lonely fighters doing all that they know
To get through each day, Harry and Joe
Harry and Joe, cheating at cards
In a Florida apartment that
Smells like cigars
They brag about grand kids and
The wives they love so
In the late afternoons of Harry and Joe
Harry and Joe lean to and fro
They lean on each other wherever they go
Two lonely fighters doing all that they know
To get through each day, Harry and Joe
An ambulance siren from across the backyard
Joe looks at Harry and deals out the cards
Harry and Joe lean to and fro
Like they lean on each other wherever they go
What tomorrow may deal them there's
No way to know
So they get through today, Harry and Joe
They get through each day, Harry and Joe
