lyrics

She drove from Minnesota with a guitar in the back.
She was in a rush and that was all she could pack.
She grabbed her car and she headed down
that old country road.
He woke up in the morning to see Joanne had gone.
He racked his mind and thought “what has gone wrong?”
He grabbed his smokes and he followed her down
that country road.

And he said “Joanne, sing to me
‘cause you’re the prettiest thing that I have ever seen.
I know you’re sad I know you’re mad
I know I’ve done wrong
but please Joanne, sing to me.”

She rolled down all the windows,
turned on her favorite song.
She racked her mind and thought “where do I belong?
If this is freedom then why do I feel so confined?”
She broke down on the highway as soon as it got dark.
She asked the Lord to give her one last spark
“‘cause these fires of inspiration, well,
they’re gettin’ very dim.”

And he said “Joanne, believe in me.
Forgive yourself as I have done for thee.
I know you’re sad I know you’re mad
I know you feel wronged
but please Joanne, believe in me.”
