 sound)
 (Verse 1)
There's  a place called Joe's
 Where some  of us go
 When the hard  working day  is through
 Through the neon  and smoke
 We laugh  and tell jokes
 And throw  down a cold one or two
 There's a jukebox  that's full of records
 By Willie, Haggard  and Jones
 There's a picture  of Elvis and  ol' John Wayne
Hanging  side by side  on the wall
 (Chorus)
 Down at Joe's  place
 It's still the old  way
 Pickled eggs  in a jar
 And a blue  ribbon sign
Ol'  boys and bankers
 Sitting side  by side
 Down at Joe's place
 Down at Joe's place
 (Verse 2)
Along  about midnight
 A few hangers on
 Are still hanging  out  at the bar
 If the telephone  rings
 It's an understood  thing
Joe  don't know where they are
 At a table  in the corner
 There's a young  man and an empty chair
 His head  in his hands, tears  in his eyes
And  a girlfriend's ring  lying there
 (Chorus)
 Down at Joe's  place
 It's still the old  way
 Pickled eggs  in a jar
 And a blue  ribbon sign
Ol'  boys and bankers
 Sitting side  by side
 Down at Joe's place
 Down at Joe's place
