Peggy Lee - Good for Nothin' Joe

He's just good-for-nothin' Joe

But oh I love him so

Guess I'd die if good-for-nothin' Joe

Ever tried to leave me flat

Oh yes I'm certain of that

Folks I know can't understand

Why I must have that man

But he thrills me like nobody can

Ain't a woman just like that

I wouldn't mind doing what I'm doing

I'd work and slave till my hands were sore

But gee I know when I go home to him

Instead of sympathy, he's just as mean as he can be

Still I know there's nothing I can do

Because I love him so

I'd be good for nothin' too, I know

Without good-for-nothin' Joe

My good-for-nothin' Joe
