Joey was a fighter
  And he fought to dream
  He said someday he would have a fancy car
  And hed leave Tennessee
  I was just a shy wallflower
  Just a wideeyed teenage girl
  But maybe intrigue or just insanity
  Made me want to enter Joeys world
  His touch made me feel beautiful
  So much passion I lost my head
    [Chorus]
  He was like James Dean in Tennessee
  He was a movie star
  A young girls dream
  From what I hear he could never leave
  But to me hell always be
  James Dean in Tennessee
  He tired to smoke them cigarettes
  And he always made me laugh
  He said Id be his pickup truck queen
  And someday Id be his better half
  I left there a year ago
  And I heard the rebel went bad
  That he had just served time for a minor crI'me
  And he was livin with his old man
    [Repeat chorus]
  I wonder what ol Joey thinks
  When he hears me singing on the radio
  Will he ever know I loved hI'm so
  Sometimes were meant to stay
  Sometimes were meant to go
  [Repeat chorus]
