lyrics

Joe & Donna
© 2011 The Squirrel Hillbillies

Joe met Donna at the bowling alley
He was sittin’ with her best friend Sally
Donna come over said, "Who’s this dude?
Sally, is this guy bothering you?"

Sally said, "Nah, he ain't no trouble
'Fact, he seems your type, baby face and no stubble"
Donna took his hand and gave him the eye
She said, "Hey boy, wanna go for a ride?"

Donna drives an eighteen wheeler
Has season tickets for the Steelers
Joe knows how to please her...
They drive on the parkway and park downtown
Dance in the fountain ‘til the sun comes ‘round

Donna’s a certified bodyguard
Joe feels safe in her arms
When she moves her freight it gives him a rush
When she flexes her muscles it makes him blush

For his Donna Joe cooks all day
She likes his cooking and she puts it away
After three dozen eggs and a half o’ cow
She says, "What you gonna feed me now?"

Donna drives an eighteen wheeler
Has season tickets for the Steelers
Joe knows how to please her...
They drive on the parkway and park downtown
Dance in the fountain ‘til the sun comes ‘round

Through the Squirrel Hill Tunnels ‘cross the Liberty Bridge
Donna steers that big ol’ rig
Eighteen wheels up McArdle Road
Over the rivers and the lights below
She parks hanging over the Mon incline, and says,
"This is when you ask me to be your bride!"

Donna loves her eighteen wheeler
‘Bout as much as a season of the Steelers.
But they're off to the new car dealer...
Gonna trade in the truck for different rig
‘Cause Joe don’t know how to drive stick shift!
