lyrics

Richard said to come on to you
So I reached out my hand
and I hired this band - "Jailbird Joey"

Jailbird Joey and the Monsters Of ****
Appearing nightly in their monster truck

I was spit on and refused
You didn't feel like being used
I unleashed the baby blues
I took myself to the prom
so I'd keep on keepin' on

The end of it was over before it began
The principals agreed I should not see you again

But Jailbird Joey drug his name through the muck
to bring you to me in his monster truck

Everyone was there - people laughed, I didn't care
No I didn't give a damn about it
I took myself to the prom so I'd keep on keepin' on
