Timothy
[Verse 1]
Trapped in a mine what had caved in
And everyone knows the only ones left
Were Joe and me and Tim

[Verse 2]
When they broke through to pull us free
The only ones left to tell the tale
Was Joe and me

[Chorus]
Timothy, Timothy
Where on earth did you go?
Timothy, Timothy
God, why don't I know?

[Verse 3]
Hungry as hell, no food to eat
And Joe said that he would sell his soul
For just a piece of meat

[Verse 4]
Water enough to drink for two
And Joe said to me, "I'll take a swig
And then there's some for you"
[Chorus]
Timothy, Timothy
Joe was lookin' at you
Timothy, Timothy
God, what did we do?

[Verse 5]
I must've blacked out just 'bout then
'Cause the very next thing that I could see
Was the light of the day again

[Verse 6]
My stomach was full as it could be
And nobody ever got around
To findin' Timothy

[Chorus]
Timothy, Timothy
Where on earth did you go?
Timothy, Timothy
God, why don't I know?

[Outro]
Timothy, yeah
Oh, Timothy
Timothy
Yeah, Timothy...
