FJoey Keys was from my neighborhood
CSome would say that he was bad and
DmJoe thought that was good
BbJoey got the name "Keys" picking lFockBbsF  
He neGmver really robAmbed no one
it suBbre amused the cops
FJoey's parents owned a restaurant
After Cclosing time they'd give us almost Dmanything we'd want
I Bbnever cared that Joey Keys was FsloBbwF  
Though he Gmcouldn't read or Amwrite too well
but Bbwe'd talk all night long
<Bridge>
FCome on, come on, come on
What you gonna Bbdo with your life?
Oh, GmCome on, come on, come on
Chasing Bbsparks in the nights
His Fold man said tomorrow
is a Bbride that goes nowhere
But I'll Gmpull some strings, get Amblackbird wings
And Bbbreak us out of there
<Chorus>
CHey Joey
