Joe Friday Lyrics

Joe Friday lyrics

It was late one Friday evenin', it began to rain and snow

Letter from my baby, say, she ain't comin' home no mo'

I gotta call up Joe Friday and put him on my baby's trail

I'm 'on' get all hold of it if I have to break loose from jail



She left here flyin' in a '38 Cadillac

Had a funny, funny feeling, the lil' girl ain't comin' back

I gotta call up Joe Friday and put him on my baby's trail

I'm 'on' get all hold of it if I have to break loose from jail



Said, I called up Boat and Black, Dick Tracy, don't you know

Crazy 'bout you, baby, don't know where the world you go

I gotta call up Joe Friday and put him on my baby's trail

I'm 'on' get all hold of it if I have to break loose from jail



Well, baby said she's gone where the chilly winds don't blow

She ain't done a-followed [Incomprehensible]

I gotta call up Joe Friday and put him on my baby's trail

I'm 'on' get all hold of it if I have to break loose from jail



Well, if you see that woman, won't you tell her this for me

Since she hit the highway I'm just as blue as I can be

I gotta call up Joe Friday and put him on my baby's trail

I'm 'on' get all hold of it if I have to break loose from jail
