about

Produced by: Fran Ashcroft
Written by: Robbie Van Leeuwen

A remake of the 1969 hit by The Shocking Blue.
A long time favorite song. Jozy says "I purchased the vinyl album because of this song and kept it all this time, I always wanted to cover it"!

lyrics

Be careful girls of mighty Joe, be careful.
He'll teach you all that you don't know.
He'll make you cry before it through.
And I'll bet you'll like it to.

Chorus:
Did you hear about mighty Joe?
Did you hear about mighty Joe?
Beware, beware when he is around.
Mighty Joe with the bass voice.

Well, mighty Joe was here last year I'll tell ya.
Just like you I had no fear.
I fell for him and baby and then he made me a woman.

Chorus

Sweet sweet sweet thing
Sweet sweet sweet thing

I loved you ooh and I loved ya
I loved you so bad

He took my heart and in a sense he did.
I swear he ain't got no sense.
I said yeah he's come to town.
I warn you he will let you down

Chorus

Sweet sweet sweet thing
Sweet sweet sweet thing
