Lyrics

Joe Sawyer
Words & Music by Bruce Donnola

The name's Joe Sawyer and there's not much to tell you.
I got a job and a place with my wife Hallie.
I had some big plans once but now that's all over
Suffice to say this guitar ain't getting younger.

CHORUS:
Not a great man,
Not a bad man,
Not a king maker,
Not a heartbreaker
Oo-hoo, just Joe Sawyer

When I was twenty-two I hit the highway
I headed westward to make my name someway
West where they make wine out of water
West where they say that time don't matter.

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
Never you mind,
I'm better off than others.
One day you find
Success was not some name you made,
It was just a song you sang and played.

And late at night on the porch when summer's almost over
I sit and play my guitar all night forever
And Hallie sings with me so sweet and plaintive
And you know, those harmonies?
Well, they were all I ever wanted.

CHORUS
