Jody Blue

Eagles - Jody Blue

Jody Blue was a lady who

Knew how to turn a trick or two.

Beneath the grime, she was a fine

Young woman of twenty-two.

It was sad, for she really wasn't bad,

She was just doing best what she knew how to

She was a gentle soul with a heart of gold

and if you asked, she'd give it to you.

Johnny Jem was a lonely young man

Making his living from the well-to-do.

At each day's end he was lookin' for a friend

to pass an hour or two.

For a quiet boy who was not so bold,

The city streets were awefully cold,

until he met that kindred soul

in the shape of Jody Blue

(Chorus:)

Two lonely people meeting in the night:

How can a thing so wrong be so right_?

How can a thing so wrong be so right?

They sat together in a back street bar

and they talked about the way things were

and of the dreams that they both had

and of things ought to be.

They were both looking for the very same thing

A one way trip through the eternal ring

That bound them both to everything

They never wanted to be.

Born in the heart of the city wastes

Maybe they were both reaching above their place

They both knew that they could not face

The only future they could see.

So like two actors in their own little show

They talked of places they could go

Places where no-one would ever know

Nobody would ever see

Two lonely people meeting in the night:

How can a thing so wrong be so right?

How can a thing so wrong be so right?

(instrumental)

"Jody," said Johnny "Well I'm sorry to say

I just cannot afford to pay

For the love you cannot give away

to a boy like me."

"Johnny," said Jody, "Don't you put yourself down

For tonight in you I believe I've found

A little hope for two city clowns

Like you and me."

"And Johnny I think it'll be alright

for you and I to spend the night

until the darkness turns to light

we'll let the world go free."

For a few short hours they forgot the world

When they found in each other, this boy and girl

A love more precious than any jewel

that you'll ever see

Two lonely people meeting in the night:

How can a thing so wrong be so right?

How can a thing so wrong be so right?

Two lonely people meeting in the night:

How can a thing so wrong be so right?

How can a thing so wrong be so right?
