He's got the tape you're looking for
And a boot CD from the record store
Copy it, dub it, feed that jones
Crispy, crunchy, shake them bones

A hacking cough and a Gridlock fit
Coke bottles on the eyes so thick
Shasta, Shasta, all night long
Keep taping 'till the break of dawn

Big Joe, where'd ya go?
I been out taping all night,
Been out taping
Been out taping all night

Uncle Tupelo, A.R.U.
Brian Wilson '62
Have you seen the Sugar Shack
Or a psychedelic China Cat

Big Joe, where'd ya go?
I been out taping all night,
Been out taping
Been out taping all night

A ten-band E.Q. and a dubbing deck
And a first gen board that'll make him sweat
Maxell, Denon, TDK
It looks like Joe is here to stay

Now his tapin' days are all but done
That master reel will not be spun
The judge banged the gavel and set no bail
Selling boots got him time in the county jail

Big Joe, where'd ya go?
I been out taping all night,
Been out taping
Been out taping all night
