Joe Rey came from Spain
Across the ocean in frozen rain
and he loves point, point, pointin the finger

Joe Rey stoned all day
two hairdressers and a chevrolet
for awhile
I think Joe Rey's gonna linger

Joe Rey, he's not so pretty
i can't understand why he's so in demand
He stays out late in the city, sometimes, sometimes

Joe rey smokes at three
barks like a pigeon and watches tv
he's cool, cool, cool, cooler than I am
He knows what I don't know
got seventeen different words for snow that he signs
signs to a deaf girl named diane

Joe Rey, he's not so pretty
i can't understand why he's so in demand
He stays out late in the city, sometimes, sometimes
