I come home from workin' hard   I pull up to my yard and there's a man I used to know   He used to love me right   But then we had a little fight and now he's on parole      Well, he's lookin' mighty mean   He'd like to cause a scene   Just hit reverse and pull out slow      And don't pay no mind to Joey   'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more   And don't pay no mind to Joey   'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more      He wears his shirt untucked   He's got one eye covered up and he's got a big 'ol 44   He likes to drink 'til late and then he'll break down your gate   And he'll throw you to the floor      Well, he looks me in the eye   He'll hit me 'till I cry   He's tryin' to get inside my door      Don't pay no mind to Joey   'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more   Don't pay no mind to Joey   Joey don't treat me good no more      Well, well, well, well, well   You can't even stop and shout   'Cause it's all over now   And there ain't nothin' left to say      Don't pay no mind to Joey   'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more   Don't pay no mind to Joey   'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more      He saw me with another man   But he did not understand that I grew up with him in the same crib   Joey started flaming red   He didn't hear a word I said and now my brother's got a broken rib      Well, the judge and jury all agreed   Joey did a dirty deed   And 50 years is what the order said      But don't pay no mind to Joey   'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more   Don't pay no mind to Joey   Joey don't treat me good no more, no more      Well, he didn't understand   The judge raised up his hand   And said, ?You'd better leave that girl alone, leave her alone?      Don't pay no mind to Joey   'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more   Don't pay no mind to Joey   'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more      Don't pay no mind to Joey   Joey don't treat me good no more, no more   That's what I said   I said, don't pay no mind, pay no mind   Pay no mind, pay no mind, pay no mind, pay no mind   No mind, pay no mind, pay no mind, pay no mind
