Hey Joni (Live)

Lyrics

Hey Joni put it all behind you
 Hey Joni now I've put it all behind me too
 These times can't add up, yr life's such a mess
 Forget the past, and just say yes
 Tell me Joni, am I the one, to see you through?
 In this broken town can you still jack in
 And know what to do?
 I remember our youth, our high ideals
 I remember you were so uptight
 That time in the trees, we broke that vice
 We took some steps & now we can't think twice
 Tell me Joni, am I right by you?
 Tell me how you're gonna lose this hard luck?
 Hey Joni, when will all these dreams come true?
 You'd better find a way to climb down
 Off that truck
 Shots ring out from the center of an empty field
 Joni's in the tall grass
 She's a beautiful mental jukebox
 A sailboat explosion
 A snap of electric whipcrack
 She's not thinking about the future
 She's not spinning her wheels
 She doesn't think at all about the past
 She's thinking long and hard
 About that wild sound
 And wondering will it last?
 Kick it!
 Hey Joni put it all behind you
 There's something turning, it's turnin right to you
 My head burns, but I know you'll speak the truth
 Hey!
 Hey Joni, put it all behind you
 Hey Joni, now I've put it all behind me too
 Forget the future, these times are such a mess
 Tune out the past, and just say yes
 It's 1963
 It's 1964
 It's 1957
 It's 1962
 Put it all behind you
 Now it's all behind you
