Joey was a fighter And he fought to dream He said someday he would have a fancy car And hed leave Tennessee I was just a shy wallflower Just a wideeyed teenage girl But maybe intrigue or just insanity Made me want to enter Joeys world His touch made me feel beautiful So much passion I lost my head
[Chorus] He was like James Dean in Tennessee He was a movie star A young girls dream From what I hear he could never leave But to me hell always be James Dean in Tennessee He tired to smoke them cigarettes And he always made me laugh He said Id be his pickup truck queen And someday Id be his better half I left there a year ago And I heard the rebel went bad That he had just served time for a minor crI'me And he was livin with his old man
[Repeat chorus] I wonder what ol Joey thinks When he hears me singing on the radio Will he ever know I loved hI'm so Sometimes were meant to stay Sometimes were meant to go [Repeat chorus]
