Keep Punching Joe |
Ladies and gentlemen |
He headed out West looking for the best |
And he’s here tonight because he’s got a lot to get off his chest |
Here he is, ladies and gentlemen |
None other than Daniel D Johnston |
Thank you |
Thank you very much for that lovely introduction |
Thank you very much |
A one, a two, a one, a two |
Listen, folks, I gotta tell you now |
I’ve been singing the blues and walking the cow |
I tell you my soul’s like running water |
Hot or cold now one or the other |
I guess I lean toward the excessive |
But that’s just the way it is |
When you’re a manic depressive |
An angel appeared to me and told me |
If you want love you gotta give |
Let me tell you now it’s been a long hard summer |
And I feel every bit, every bit more dumber |
Don’t know where it is I’m gonna go |
Heard somebody say 'keep punching, Joe' |
Keep punching, Joe |
Keep punching, Joe |
Keep punching |
Dial 'P' for pest control |
Ah, now let me tell you about my family |
You know they’ve been right there beside me |
Through all this time that I’ve been low |
They’ve been punching Joe |
Keep Punching Joe |
Kick him right in the face |
Keep Punching Joe |
Kick him when he’s down |
Keep Punching Joe |
Kick him. |
Kick him when he’s low |
I’ve got something to get off my chest |
Well, I’ve got something to get off my chest |
Yes, I’ve got something to get off my chest |
How am I supposed to give love |
If I never got love? |
And what the heck am I punching for? |
And how am I to look God in the face? |
When I feel so much disgrace? |
Now, that’s better off my chest |
Than out of my mind |
Keep punching, Joe! |
Woo |
