[Intro] We promised our friends from Stanley, Idaho, that we would do them a song tonight. And the only reason we're doing it is because it's a damn good song. There's a little band out of Stanley, Idaho, that's now based out in Austin, Texas, called Reckless Kelly, and they're badass. Now, this is a song about killing a woman because she pisses you off. You gotta do it [Verse 1] It sure didn't take too long I woke up in the morning, she's gone Well, the note that she wrote didn't say Dear John It said, "Goodbye, sucker, I'm gone" Was a homegrown mountain girl Raised in a different world I was a wannabe rocker, she was more into Merle Couldn't see it just wouldn't work Now, I'm double-fisting long necks and grapefruit and Stoli But I'm never getting over Joely [Verse 2] And I poured myself in my car I drove it on down to the bar But they wouldn't let me in 'Cause I ain't a movie star Went to the Horse Shoe on Lamar The bouncer threw me out there, too And I didn't know what to do So I picked up the phone and I called Big Sue Call block, it wouldn't let me through Now I'm wishing for some drugs or a shrink to console me But I'm never getting over Joely [Verse 3] Well, I gathered up all of my guns And a pipe bomb just for fun Drove to her house and parked out on the lawn That's right, I always was a crazy one Yeah, the boyfriend was sure nice to me "Calm down, would you like a drink?" And I shot him full of holes from his nose to his knees Polished off her little sweet pea Now I'm crying on my knees feeling dirty and unholy But I'm never getting over Joely Yeah, I'm probably getting life and serve at least forty Never getting over Joely, hey
