I come home from workin' hard
I pull up to my yard and there's a man I used to know
He used to love me right
But then we had a little fight and now he's on paroleWell, he's lookin' mighty mean
He'd like to cause a scene
Just hit reverse and pull out slowAnd don't pay no mind to Joey
'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more
And don't pay no mind to Joey
'Cause Joey don't treat me good no moreHe wears his shirt untucked
He's got one eye covered up and he's got a big 'ol 44
He likes to drink 'til late and then he'll break down your gate
And he'll throw you to the floorWell, he looks me in the eye
He'll hit me 'till I cry
He's tryin' to get inside my doorDon't pay no mind to Joey
'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more
Don't pay no mind to Joey
Joey don't treat me good no moreWell, well, well, well, well
You can't even stop and shout
'Cause it's all over now
And there ain't nothin' left to sayDon't pay no mind to Joey
'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more
Don't pay no mind to Joey
'Cause Joey don't treat me good no moreHe saw me with another man
But he did not understand that I grew up with him in the same crib
Joey started flaming red
He didn't hear a word I said and now my brother's got a broken ribWell, the judge and jury all agreed
Joey did a dirty deed
And 50 years is what the order saidBut don't pay no mind to Joey
'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more
Don't pay no mind to Joey
Joey don't treat me good no more, no moreWell, he didn't understand
The judge raised up his hand
And said, You'd better leave that girl alone, leave her aloneDon't pay no mind to Joey
'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more
Don't pay no mind to Joey
'Cause Joey don't treat me good no moreDon't pay no mind to Joey
Joey don't treat me good no more, no more
That's what I said
I said, don't pay no mind, pay no mind
Pay no mind, pay no mind, pay no mind, pay no mind
No mind, pay no mind, pay no mind, pay no mind
