Lucy Kaplanski My Name Joe written by David Massengill
F
Joe threw another tantrum
Bb
He could not to be understood
Eb Bb
He cries like baby Samson
F
His English is not good
Joe's boss of the kitchen
Bb
But on the outside he knows
Eb Bb
Low man on the totem's
F
Wearing giveaway clothes
Joe he fights the good fight
Bb
He wears a white uniform
Eb Bb
The waiters are all artists
F
Out chasing unicorns
Joe works fourteen hours
Bb
After ten he starts to booze
Eb Bb
He gets very sentimental
F
Oh he sings the buddah blues
Eb Bb F
He sings the buddah blues
Bb Eb
My name Joe my name Joe

There is a king in Thailand

And he plays the jazz drum

He has a fine and healthy son
Eb F Eb Bb
Oh no I'm not the one
Eb Bb F
My name Joe
F
On the wall by the time clock
Bb
Joe's beaming from a photograph
Eb Bb
Someone drew across his face
F
The waiters began to laugh
Joe picked up a hatchet
Bb
And he tenderized the wall
Eb Bb
And when he got through
F
Time clock wasn't punching anymore
The waiters ran for cover
Bb
The maitre d' began to lisp
Eb Bb
The drunkard in the corner
F
Said his lettuce was not crisp
Owner called immigration
Bb
Said there's someone you should know
Eb Bb
He's an illegal alien
F
And I think his name is Joe
Eb Bb F
Oh I know his name is Joe

My name Joe
F
Came the man from immigration
Bb
Said I've got a job to do
Eb Bb
Easy questions easy answers
F
Just point me to the kitchen crew
He asked Leroy from Harlem
Bb
He asked Cisco from Mexico
Eb Bb
He asked the white trash from Tennessee
F
Thet all said my name Joe
My name Joe my name Joe
F
The maitre d' he sputtered
Bb
The kitchen crew they roared
Eb Bb
And while they were arguing
F
Joe slipped out the back door
On the beach Joe tries to listen
Bb
To the heartbeat of a whale
Eb Bb
How it echoes his own heartbeat
F
And the distance he has sailed
Eb Bb F
Oh the distance he has sailed
Bb Eb
My name Joe my name Joe
Bb Eb Bb Eb Bb
There is a king in Thailand
Eb F Eb Bb Eb Bb
And he plays the jazz drum
Bb Eb Bb Eb Bb
He has a fine and healthy son
Eb F Eb Bb
Oh no I'm not the one
Eb Bb F
My name Joe
