There was a young fighter that came from A-thens
His sword and his helmet were his only companions
He worked on his balance and he slept un-der the stars
Waiting for someday, his future to change

And then through his travels, he met up with Xena
Hoping to join with her and fight by her side
And sometimes he would and his skills they did im-prove
He sang out a song that the others would chide
As if that would stop him from tryin

Chorus:
His name was Joxer the Mighty
Roamed through the countryside, yeah
Helping his friends was the path that he chose
Wouldn't let Xena down if he could
And roamed through the countryside, yeah

Well, their first years together were anxious and dark
But Joxer the Mighty was there to keep things light
Though thought of as a dreamer on account of his boastin
A heart of lion and loyalty more could show

There's a song that they sing when they take to the long roads
A song that they sing when they take to the sea
A song that they sing of a man long ago
Maybe you can believe it, if it helps you to sleep
But singing works just fine for me.

His name was Joxer the Mighty
Roamed through the countryside, yeah
Helping his friends was the path that he chose
Wouldn't let Xena down if he could
And roamed through the countryside, yeah
