[00:00.00]Watchin' Joey Glow - Steve Goodman
[00:14.47]Down here in the shelter
[00:17.25]We've got everything we need
[00:21.17]Mom put up her peach preserves
[00:24.12]Pa's got a book to read
[00:27.64]Sister knits some bandages
[00:30.54]And we turn the lights down low
[00:34.20]And play some Scrabble watching Joey glow
[00:40.97]At breakfast Mom hands Joe the bread
[00:44.05]And he turns it into toast
[00:47.41]Last night he hugged a leg of lamb
[00:50.50]And soon we had a roast
[00:53.83]You should see him heat the coffee up
[00:57.17]When he stirs it with his toe
[01:00.58]We all get hungry watching Joey glow
[01:07.63]You have to wear dark glasses
[01:10.58]If you stare at him a while
[01:13.89]Or he'll fry your little eyes out
[01:17.09]With his incandescent smile
[01:20.99]At Chistmastime it felt so strange
[01:24.06]But it was great to see
[01:27.69]The way we decorated Joe as if he was our tree
[01:34.25]And his star was shining brightly underneath the mistletoe
[01:41.00]So we blew him kisses watching Joey glow
[01:48.08]I hope the world's not over for my sake and for his
[01:54.85]I'd love for everyone to know how brilliant Joey is
[02:00.86]We've been down here for six months now
[02:04.62]And we're proud to be alive
[02:08.05]We owe it to America to sit here and survive
[02:14.80]So we listen for the static on the short wave radio
[02:21.53]And count the shock waves watching Joey glow
