Lyrics
Lay Your Money Down
VERSE:
Well now Joe's got a line on a Chevrolet
A two-door sedan with new blue paint
White wall tires and shiny chrome
Put your money down man drive it home
CHORUS
Step right up
Joey's gonna make you a deal
He'll say man you know at this price
It's a steal
Now everywhere's a familiar sound
You hear Joe's mantra all over town
LAY YOUR MONEY DOWN
Lay it down
Oh yeah lay it down
LAY YOUR MONEY DOWN
VERSE:
Well now Joe's got a line on a fine guitar
Once played by Waits at a local bar
He wrote "Tom was here" on the back you see
To guarantee the authenticity
CHORUS:
Step right up
Joey's gonna make you a deal
He'll say man you know At this price
It's a steal
Now everywhere's a familiar sound
You hear Joe's mantra all over town
LAY YOUR MONEY DOWN
Lay it down
Oh yeah lay it down
Bridge:
He's got a pawnshop on wheels
The only one in town
And everywhere you turn
You hear Joey sayin'
LAY YOUR MONEY DOWN
Lay it down
Oh yeah lay it down
VERSE:
Well now Joe's got a line on an antique phone
Once owned by the mobster Al Capone
He made a lot of calls down in FLA
Till the cops showed up and put him away
CHORUS:
Step right up
Joey's gonna make you a deal
He'll say man you know At this price
It's a steal
Now everywhere's a familiar sound
You hear Joe's mantra all over town
LAY YOUR MONEY DOWN
Lay it down
Oh yeah lay it down
Oh yeah lay it down
LAY YOUR MONEY DOWN
