No care in the world tonight
The weather's good, the sky is bright
But me, I expect a cold breeze any time

Got a date at nine, got to get up
I ramble down to the broken clock
And shake the daydreams out of my head

If for just one night, it'd be hard enough
I'd be your summer love now
If it's hard enough, I'll stay until the dawn
And you know there's nothing
that could keep me away from you tonight
Except your vicious girlfriend, Jo

A bottle of wine from last night
Reminds me of my favorite sight
Drunken Lady Lazarus at the dance hall

I put on my old disquise
My best black suit and a red necktie
But you'll never know me from the bum you used to loathe.

If for just one night, it'd be hard enough
I'd be your summer love now
If it's hard enough, I'll stay until the dawn
And you know there's nothing
that could keep me away from you tonight
Except your vicious girlfriend, Joan

And Joan, she could beat me up with just one arm
And Joan, she could do some irreversible harm
Joan rides the county with her Harley Davidson
When she tires of the road, she beats people up for sport
But tonight I just don't care because.... it is hard enough

hard enough, I'll be your summer love now
It is hard enough, I'll stay until the dawn
And you know there's nothing
that could keep me away from you tonight
Except your vicious girlfriend, Joan
