[Verse 1]

Be careful girls for Mighty Joe, be careful

He teaches you all that don't know

He makes you cry before it's through

And I bet you like it too

[Chorus]

Did you hear about Mighty Joe?

Did you hear about Mighty Joe?

Beware, beware when he is around

Mighty Joe with the bass voice

[Verse 2]

Mighty Joe was here last year, I tell you

Just like you, I had no fear

I fell for him, baby, and then

He made me a woman

[Chorus]

Did you hear about Mighty Joe?

Did you hear about Mighty Joe?

Beware, beware when he is around

Mighty Joe with the bass voice

[Bridge]

Sweet, sweet, sweet thing

Sweet, sweet, sweet thing

I love you, yes, I love you

I love you so bad

[Verse 3]

He took my heart and innocence, he did

I swear he ain't got no sense

Well, I said yeah, he's gone to town

I warn you, he will let you down

[Chorus]

Did you hear about Mighty Joe?

Did you hear about Mighty Joe?

Beware, beware when he is around

Mighty Joe with the bass voice
