I just got a letter from a very dear pal
He wrote to say he’s sorry for stealin' my gal
Pin a medal on Joey
He stole your love from me Pin a medal on Joey
He set my poor heart free
No more cryin' about a love that was untrue
Oh-ho, oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho Hip hooray for that Joey
For bein' good to me Hip hooray for that Joey
He took my misery
No more heartache will I be givin' you
Oh-ho, oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho CHORUS
Told him all about you
Told him how you lied
But Joey won’t believe me He thinks I’m a jealous guy-eye
