Lyrics

Looking at the pictures of the places that he's been
 Old man told me what he found
 Said it don't make no difference whether you're out or whether you're in
 You know the world keeps going around and around
 Going around and around
 Said he looked at the places, talk to the faces that he seen
 Then he turned the pictures upside down
 Said it don't make no difference how many places that you've been
 Said the world keeps going around and around
 Going around and around
 Then he put up the pictures shook his head and with a grin
 He talked about his ups and downs
 Said it don't make no difference how many fixes you've been in
 You know the world keeps going around and around
 Going around and around
 Betty Joe Johnson
 Don't you pull no Daisy Mae on me
 Daisy Mae she did me dirty
 So I had to leave her for Anna Lee
 Anna Lee she had big street feet
 She spends her nights out on the road
 So I started seeing Sally Jackson
 I had to let old Anna Lee go
 Sally Jackson was a player
 Had another man along with me
 So I just took me one step backwards
 Checked up on old Anna Lee
 Anna Lee still had them street feet
 Like to dance all night and sleep all day
 So I just took one more step backwards
 Checked up on old Daisy Mae
 Daisy Mae is still doing dirty
 So I tell you what I had to do
 I had to go just one step further
 Betty Joe Johnson
 And that's how I know you
 Said he looked at the places, talk to the faces that he seen
 Then he turned the pictures upside down
 Said it don't make no difference how many places that you've been
 Said the world keeps going around and around
 Going around and around
