Lyric Gal From Joe s

(1939) Irving Mills, Duke Ellington

Way down at Mister Joe s Cafe
They re takin someone far away
And if you hear a song today
It s a sad tune that you ll be playin :
She s leavin and folks are feelin so low
They re grievin and they re consolin poor Joe
Gonna miss her song
Gonna miss her smile
She ll be travlin alone down that last long mile
They re sighin
With all thei trouble and woes
They re Cryin cause they all loved
The gal from Joe s.
