Joe and Mabel's 12th St. Bar and Grill

The kids say, "Daddy, where did you meet mother?"
Well, I can't tell them and I never will.
I can't tell them that we met each other
Down at Joe and Mabel's twelfth street bar and grill.

I used to find you down there every weekend,
But when we wed I thought you'd had your fill,
But here lately you've begun to frequent
Joe and Mabel's twelfth street bar and grill.

[Chorus]
There's an Ajax beer sign hanging from the window
And there're men behind those walls of sin
Who'll drag you down again!
I can't understand why you get such a thrill
Down at Joe and Mabel's twelfth street bar and grill.
