Joe

Tom Petty · The Last DJ [2002]

My name's Joe, I'm the CEO

Yeah, I'm the man makes the big wheels roll

I'm the hand on the green light switch

You get to be famous

I get to be rich



Go get me a kid with a good-looking face

Bring me a kid can remember his place

Some hungry poet son of a bitch

He gets to be famous

I get to be rich



Or bring me a girl they're always the best

You put 'em on stage and ya' have 'em undress

Some angel whore who can learn a guitar lick

Hey, now that's what I call music



Yeah they'll come looking for money when the public gets bored

I will fight 'em with lawyers they could never afford

Yeah I'll make her look like a spoiled little bitch

She gets to be famous

I get to be rich



Or bring me a girl they're always the best

You put 'em on stage and ya' have 'em undress

Some angel whore who can learn a guitar lick

Hey, now that's what I call music



So burned out Johnny thinks the books are shifty

What good's that alkie to me when he's fifty

Well we could move catalog if he'd only die quicker

Send my regards to the gig and a case of good liquor



He gets to be famous

I get to be rich



He gets to be famous

I get to be rich



My name's Joe. I'm the ceo

I'm the man makes the big wheels roll.
