Lyrics
This is the song of Little Jo
She's not the girl I used to know
Forever screaming all the day and night
She used to be a diplomat
But now she's down the laundromat
They washed her mind and now she finds it hard
She's stepping out upon the ledge
She's got a gun against her head
She's wired up to blow the power line
She's walking out upon the knife
She'll take it to the edge of life
Just like the song, the pressure's on again
I know her name
Oh, but now she never seems the same
Don't talk to me
She can't take no sympathy
Because she's highly strung
Oh, highly strung, she's undone
Highly strung
Highly strung, she's undone
Whoa, whoa, whoa
I know her name
She don't talk to me
Highly strung
Highly strung
Highly strung
Highly strung
Whoa
This is the song of Little Jo
She's not the girl I used to know
(She's not the girl)
She's not the girl
(She's not the girl)
She's not the girl I used to know
