Lyrics
I know a swinging place
On a way out street
Where the chicks all gather
And the cats all meet, yeah
But you can't get in, Lord
Unless you know a man
A man they call Big Joe Moe
They got the red light burning
They got the shake down low
Yeah, they got a drummer with a beat
He'll knock you off your feet
That's if you don't
But you can't get in
Unless you know a man
A man they call Big Joe Moe
Big Joe Moe, Big Joe Moe
Open up that door
Come on and let me in
So I can see my friend
Inside I know
But you can't get in
Unless you know a man
A man they call Big Joe Moe
I waited on the corner
Until a quarter past ten
Yeah, I seen him knock on the door
And as Big Joe Moe walked right on in
Well, look at it, B man, what's wrong with me?
I think I'm gonna try it again
Big Joe Moe, Big Joe Moe
Gotta open up that door
Yeah, you oughta just let me in
So I can see my friend
Inside, I know
Joe said "Now go away, Mack
And don't come back
'Cause you ain't got a dime
Stop wasting my time"
You know I would, man, if I only could
My man (Big Joe Moe)
So I went around the back
Well, peeping through a crack
Just to see what was really going on (It was swinging)
I climbed up on a stump
But up jumped a chump
Said "Man, don't you know you're wrong?
" (Don't you know you're wrong?)
I think you better go on home
Big Joe Moe, Big Joe Moe
Open up that door
You oughta just let me in
So I can see my friend
I spent a quarter of my dough
