Video Lyrics

He was
driving
home one evening
In his beat-up Pontiac
When an old lady
flagged
him down
Her
Mercedes
had a flat
He
could
see that she was frightened
Standing out
there
in the snow
‘Til he said ‘I’m here to help you, ma’m
By the way, my name’s Joe’
She said ‘I’m from St. Louis
And I’m only
passing
through
I must’ve seen a
hundred
cars go by
This is
awful
nice of you’
When he
changed
the tire
And
closed
her trunk
And was
about
to
drive
away
She said ‘How much do I owe you?’
Here’s what he had to say
‘You don’t owe me a thing
I’ve been
there
too
Someone once
helped
me out
Just the way I’m
helping
you
If you
really
wanna pay me back
Here’s what you do
Don’t let the
chain
of love end with you’
Well, a few
miles
down the road
The lady saw a
small
cafe
She went in to grab a bite to eat
And then be on her way
But she couldn’t help but notice
How the
waitress
smiled so sweet
She must have been
eight
months
Along and dead on her feet
No, she didn’t know her story
And she
probably
never will
When the
waitress
went to get her
Change from a
hundred
dollar bill
The lady
slipped
right out the door
And on a
nakpin
left a note
There were
tears
in the waitress’ eyes
When she read what she’d wrote
‘You don’t owe me a thing
I’ve been
there
too
Someone once
helped
me out
Just the way I’m
helping
you
If you
really
wanna pay me back
Here’s what you do
Don’t let the
chain
of love end with you’
That
night
when she got
Home from work
The
waitress
climbed into bed
She was
thinking
about the money
And what the lady’s note had said
As her
husband
lay
there
sleeping
She
whispered
soft and low
‘Everything’s
gonna
be alright

I love you, Joe’
