Joe'S Been A-Gittin' There - Johnny Horton
There was a Yankee cornel in 1862
Who fell in love with a southern belle where the sweet magnolias bloom

He wondered why folks laughed at him when he went ridin' by
But little did he know that she was a courtin' on the sly

Joe's been a gettin' there Joe's been a flyin'
Joe's been a gettin' there all this time
Joe's been a gettin' there Joe's been a flyin'
Joe's been a gettin' there beatin' his time

He walked her up the mountain he named it to her there
He offered her a band of gold and his name to share
She said that she would marry him and even set the day
But little did he know that she loved a soldier boy in grey

Joe's been a gettin' there Joe's been a flyin'
Joe's been a gettin' there all this time
Joe's been a gettin' there Joe's been a flyin'
Joe's been a gettin' there beatin' his time

She took the love he offered she took his silver too
She took every little thing from cornel dressed in blue
She wouldn't let him hold her in a fond embrace

And when he tried to kiss his bride she laughed right in his face
Joe's been a gettin' there Joe's been a flyin'
Joe's been a gettin' there all this time

Joe's been a gettin' there Joe's been a flyin'
Joe's been a gettin' there beatin' his time

He woke up one morning and found himself alone
And all she left was a letter that said goodbye farewell I'm gone

No doubt he was a mighty man where the heroes fell

But all is fare in love and war and he lost his southern belle

Joe's been a gettin' there Joe's been a flyin'
Joe's been a gettin' there all this time
Joe's been a gettin' there Joe's been a flyin'
Joe's been a gettin' there beatin' his time
Joe's been a gettin' there Joe's been a flyin'
Joe's been a gettin' there all this time
Joe's been a gettin' there Joe's been a flyin'
Joe's been a gettin' there beatin' his time
