Oh Joe

Oh Joe - Flannel Graph

Running through the forest on

The mossy dirty ground

Hearing all the corses of animal sounds

They sold me

They sold me

To the natives and the gypsies

They told me

They told me

That I would not be found

Doing all the duties for a man I hardly know

Man his wife's a beauty

With a natural glow

Her flirting

Her flirting

She held my coat so tightly

She cursed me

She cursed me

When I told her no

Oh joe

Watch it all unfold

Oh joe

You're not alone

Locked up in a prison

For some wayword woman's lies

When I met a couple of king pharaoh's guys

They told me

They told me

The dreams they had so worried

I said one would live

But the other one would die

I was forgotten in my chains

But there was something greater

Running through my veins

Master of the nation had some troubling dreams

Nobody could tell him what

The two of them would mean

They called me

They called me

I said it was not in me

But only

The holy one would know

Ohooooo joe

Oh joe

Pulled from jail below

Tell the king my words

Joe be bold

For seven years we will be blessed

But seven years will lead to hunger

Spreading east to west

And if you wanna save the kingdom

Find a man to lead it

With wisdom

And the king said

Ohooooo joe

I may be on the throne

But you are incognate

Lead our land

For you are that man
