I just got a letter from a very dear pal

He wrote to say he's sorry for stealin' my gal

Pin a medal on Joey

He stole your love from me

Pin a medal on Joey

He set my poor heart free

No more cryin' about a love that was untrue

Oh-ho, oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

Hip hooray for that Joey

For bein' good to me

Hip hooray for that Joey

He took my misery

No more heartache will I be givin' you

Oh-ho, oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

CHORUS

Told him all about you

Told him how you lied

But Joey won't believe me

He thinks I'm a jealous guy-eye

Pin a medal on Joey

For bein' such a fool

Pin a medal on Joey

He won a heart that's cruel

He'll be sorry when you break his heart in two

Oh-ho, oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

Told him all about you

Told him how you lied

But Joey won't believe me

He thinks I'm a jealous guy-eye

Pin a medal on Joey

For bein' such a fool

Pin a medal on Joey

He won a heart that's cruel

He'll be sorry when you break his heart in two

Oh-ho, oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

Pin a medal on Joey, hey, hey, hey, hey,

Hip hooray for that Joey oh, oh, oh, oh

FADE

Pin a medal on Joey, hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah
