Say It Ain't So Joe Lyrics - Gary Brooker

(Murray Head) 

Say it ain't so Joe 

Please, say it ain't so 

That's not what I want to hear Joe 

And I got a right to know 

Say it ain't so Joe 

Please, say it ain't so 

I'm sure they're telling us lies Joe 

please, tell us it ain't so 

They told us that our hero 

Had played his trump card 

He doesn't know how to go on 

We're clinging to his charm & determined smile 

But the good old days have gone. 

The image and the empire may be falling apart 

The money has gotten scarce 

one mans word held the country together 

But the truth is getting fierce. 

Say it ain't so Joe 

Please say it ain't so 

We've pinned our hopes on you Joe 

And they're ruining our show 

Oh baby don't you think we're gonna get burned 

Oh baby don't you think we're gonna get burned 

We're gonna get turned, we're gonna get learned 

We're gonna get burned 

We're gonna get burned 

We're gonna get burned
