say it ain't so, joe please, say it ain't so
that's not what i wanna hear joe
ain't i got a right to know
say it ain't so, joe please, say it ain't so
i'm sure they telling us lies joe,
please tell us it ain't so.
they told us our hero has played his trump card
<a href="http://www.lyricsone.com">Song Lyrics</a>
he doesn't know how to go on.
we're clinging to his charm and determined smile,
but the good old days have gone.
the image and the empire may be failing apart
the money has gotten scarce
one man's word held the country together,
but the truth is getting fierce
say it ain't so, joe please, say it ain't so
we pinned our hope on you joe
and they're ruining our show
