I Wonder What's Become of Joe
Should old acquaintance be forgot?
I'll tell the world that it should not
That's why I've got my eyes open
Lookin' for someone
And I'm hopin'
You may know the one I mean
The man I want to find
'Cause nothin' is and nothin' else will
Be ever on my mind
I wonder what's become of Joe
My little Joe;
I'd give all the world to know
Where did he go!
How I'd love to see him
Smilin' again
Like he used to when
He was my beau; I loved him so dearly!
Wonder if he wonders, too
Whether I'm gay, or if I am feelin' blue;
What would he say?
Gee, but we were happy
Not long ago
I wonder what's become of Joe
I wonder what's become of Joe
I'd give all the world to know
Oh, he used to see me
Once in awhile
But that once in awhile
Meant more to me than any three others
Wonder if he wonders, too
If I'm feelin' kind of blue;
Don't care what's become of last winter's snow
I just wonder, wonder, what's become of my Joe!
