Jo Jo Take Me Down

from How Could I Know by Evan Johnson

/

lyrics

Well it's sidewalks, freeways
Anything to take me back to
where I know she'll take me back again
Small talk, entryways
Buttons, blouses, everything
Turn around
Let it all begin

And I say Jo Jo take me down
I watch us sin, I understand
And it's one, two, three, four
Tells me everything I need to know
Jo Jo take me down
I watch us slide into an ordinary day

False gods find out
just how easy we believe them
Smart boy, you don't understand
Seeing red undercover
Several days of summer weather
Let 'em know
Let 'em know you're the man

And I say Jo Jo take me down
I watch us sin, I understand
And it's one, two, three, four
Tells me everything I need to know
Jo Jo take me down
I watch us slide into an ordinary day

Three words that are whispered
Now you know it's finally coming
Once more and then you let it go
Turn around, look around
just how easy you believed her
Smart boy, you don't understand

And I say Jo Jo take me down
I watch us sin, I understand
And it's one, two, three, four
Tells me everything I need to know
Jo Jo take me down
I watch us slide into an ordinary day
