Hey Jo

It’s been a long day driving
Out on the open road
It’s been a long road to nowhere
Is where it seems I’ve been goin’
And I’m sittin’ on top o this steering wheel
Tryin’ to smack myself awake
Then you turn to me so earnestly - you say
Take a break

And I say
Hey Jo I’m ok Jo
But there’s somethin’ about your smile
I’m gonna let you take the wheel for awhile

It’s been a long day drivin’
And this road is wearing thin
I wanna get us fast through this dark dark night
So a new day can begin
And I’m clinging so close to this road tonight 
I’m like a dog with his fav’rite shoe
Yeah I’m not letting go for anything
But I’ll hand my keys to you

And I say
Hey Jo I’m ok Jo
But there’s somethin’ about your smile
I’m gonna let you take the wheel for awhile

You can drive a little
Let me close my eyes a little
‘Cause I’ve been runnin’ like a champion
And I’m tired to the bone
Oh won’t you drive a little while
Just for the
Next 50 miles
Won’t you take us in your steady hands
And get us safely home
