Bon Jovi - Joey：歌詞+中文翻譯

Bon Jovi於2002年的歌曲，
當年聽完這首歌很有同感，周遭也有這樣的一個朋友，
家境不錯，但他行為怪異，只有我這個朋友，
常常一起討論天方夜譚，後來有一天他家人經商失敗後，
全家人要搬遷逃離債主，就此失去聯絡，
老實說我覺得他很天才，
他走後實在來不及告訴他：
【Find a better life】

Joey Keys was from my neighborhood

Some would say that he was bad and Joe thought that was good

He never really robbed no one; it sure amused the cops

Though he couldn't read or write too well but we'd talk all night
long.

Come on, come on, come on
來吧，來吧…
What you gonna do with your life?

Come on, come on, come on

His old man said tomorrow is a ride that goes nowhere

But I'll pull some strings, get blackbird wings
