JOEY
(Herb Wiener / James J. Kriegman / Salmirs-Bernstein)

Betty Madigan - 1954
Jeri Southern - 1954
Margaret Whiting - 1954


Jimmy kissed me in the springtime
Tommy kissed me in the fall
But I remember only Joey
Joey kissed me not at all

Jimmy sang the sweetest love songs
Tommy watched me openly
But I remember only Joey
Joey stole my heart from me

Every now and then Joey wandered by
How I wished that he would stay'
Then I breathed a sigh as I wondered why
He never ever looked my way

Jimmy always sent me flowers
Tommy often did the same
But I remember only Joey
Joey made me change my name

Jimmy always sent me flowers
Tommy often did the same
But I remember only Joey
Joey made me change my name

Joey made me change my name
