What happened to Joey the strong believer  He was a real straight shooter, but he got the fever  Now he's cruisin' the downtown queen of the city  With a feel for the street and he's dressing pretty  'Cause when she left him behind, something inside said no more  There's a price to pay when you play with the little town flirt  And ooh, baby that's the hurt  What happened to Sally, she's so nervous  Does she need a love or a mental service  All the boys just leave her poor heart achin'  But she can't look back now, Joey's taken  So the time rolls by, 'til something inside says no more  There's a price to pay when you can't keep away from the dirt  And ooh, baby that's the hurt  Someone's always telling lies  Someone's always got something to hide, now don't they  Someone's running and someone's reaching  Just look at what history's teaching you  So you tell your lies, 'til something says no more  There's a price to pay when you can't keep from messing with the curse  And ooh, baby that's the hurt
