Gary Brooker - Say It Ain't So Joe lyrics

(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
