Joey Keys was from my neighborhoodSome would say that he was bad and Joe thought that was goodJoey got the name "Keys" picking locksHe never really robbed no one; it sure amused the copsJoey's parents owned a restaurantAfter closing time they'd give us almost anything we'd wantI never cared that Joey Keys was slowThough he couldn't read or write too well but we'd talk all night long.Come on, come on, come onWhat you gonna do with your life?Come on, come on, come onChasing sparks in the nightsHis old man said tomorrow is a ride that goes nowhereBut I'll pull some strings, get blackbird wingsAnd break us out of there[Chorus:]Hey JoeyC'mon tell me 'bout your dreamsTell me all the sights you're gonna seeTell me who you're gonna beHey JoeyYou're gonna kiss the girls goodnightSometimes you got to stand and fightIt'll be alrightWe're gonna find a better lifeSee Joe was 3 years younger to the dayActing like a little brother but became my ball and chainI met this girl named Rhonda, she fell for meShe said, "I might learn to like him but love ain't built for three."[Chorus:]Hey JoeyC'mon tell me 'bout your dreamsTell me all the sights you're gonna seeTell me who you're gonna beHey JoeyYou're gonna kiss the girls goodnightSometimes you got to stand and fightIt'll be alrightHey JoeyNews gets around in this fading neighborhoodThe old man lost the restaurantHe drinks more than he shouldIt's time for Joey keys to do some goodPick the lock off our lives, let's get out of here like we always said we would[Chorus:]Hey JoeyC'mon tell me 'bout your dreamsTell me all the sights you're gonna seeTell me who you're gonna beHey JoeyYou're gonna kiss the girls goodnightSometimes you got to stand and fightIt'll be alrightWe're gonna find a better lifeFind a better lifeFind a better life
