Say it ain't so, Joe please, say it ain't so That's not what I wanna hear Joe Ain't I got a right to know Say it ain't so, Joe please, say it ain't so I'm sure they telling us lies Joe Please tell us it ain't so They told us our hero has played his Trump card He doesn't know how to go on We're clinging to his charm and determined smile But the good old days have gone The image and the empire maybe falling apart The money has gotten scarce One man's word held the country together But the truth is getting fierce Say it ain't so, Joe please, say it ain't so We pinned our hope on you Joe And they're ruining our show
