Steve Goodman - Watchin' Joey Glow lyrics

[Steve Goodman - Watchin' Joey Glow lyrics]

Down here in the shelter
We've got everything we need
Mom put up her peach preserves
Pa's got a book to read
Sister knit's some bandages
And we turn the lights down low
And play some Scrabble, watching Joey glow

At breakfast Mom hands Joe the bread
And he turns it into toast
Last night he hugged a leg of lamb
And soon we had a roast
You should see him heat the coffee up
When he stirs it with his toe
We all get hungry, watching Joey glow

You have to wear dark glasses if
You stare at him a while
Or he'll fry your little eyes
Out with his incandescent smile
At Chistmastime, it sure felt strange


But it was great to see
The way we decorated Joe as
If he was our tree and his star was shining
Brightly underneath the mistletoe
So we blew him kisses, watching Joey glow

I hope the world's not over
For my sake and for his
I'd love for everyone to know
How brilliant Joey is

We've been down here for six months now
And we're proud to be alive
We owe it to America to sit here and survive
So we listen for the static
On the short wave radio
And count the shock waves, watching Joey glow
