Hey Joni Lyrics

    [lee]
    Hey joni put it all behind you
    Hey joni now i've put it all behind me too
    These times can't add up
    Yr life is such a mess
    Forget the past, and just say yes

    Tell me joni, am i the one
    To see you through?
    In this broken town can you still jack in
    And know what to do?
    I remember our youth, our high ideals
    I remember you were so uptight
    That time in the trees, we broke that vice
    We took some steps and now
    We can't think twice

    Tell me joni, am i right by you?
    Tell me how yr gonna lose this hard luck?
    Hey joni, when will all these dreams come true?
    You'd better find a way
    To climb down off that truck

    Shots ring out from the center of an empty field
    Joni's in the tall grass
    She's a beautiful mental jukebox
    A sailboat explosion
    A snap of electric whipcrack

    She's not thinking about the future
    She's not spinning her wheels
    She doesn't think at all about the past
    She thinking long and hard
    About that high wild sound
    And wondering will it last?

    Kick it

    Hey joni, put it all behind you
    There's something turning, joni, turning right to you
    My head burns, but i know you'll speak the truth, hey!
    Hey joni, put it all behind you
    Hey joni, now i've put it all behind me too
    Forget the future
    These times are such a mess
    Tune out the past, and just say yes

    It's 1963
    It's 1964
    It's 1957
    It's 1962

    Put it all behind you
    Now it's all behind you
