I'll go back to St. Johnsberry to breathe the air
|
Thats where I met a girl called Josephine
|
They call her Josephine the Fair
|
She had Manch Vegas written across her back
|
She just cut off all her hair,
|
We shared a blanket by the tracks in Lebanon, New Hampshire
|
I couldn't have sleep a better dream
|
But I never felt so awake in my life
|
till I noticed my jacket was gone and so was Josephine
|
|
Josephine, Josephine, Josephine
|
How come you aint no where to be seen
|
Josephine, Josephine, Josephine
|
How come how come Josephine?
|
|
Soon after she musta had a change of heart
|
but as the train was catching up speed
|
like seeing the moon in the middle of the day
|
I felt like my feet were just gonna float away
|
when i heard her yelling "Chicoree"
|
she was takin off her jacket as she ran
|
I said forget the jacket just gimme your hand
|
I'm gettin off at the first stop up in canada
|
I can make you happy there
|
she said it would be a while
|
I said I'll wait
|
she said it could be a while
|
I said I'll wait
|
keep the jacket just bring it to me someday
|
|
Josephine, Josephine, Josephine
|
How come you aint no where to be seen
|
Josephine, Josephine, Josephine
|
How come how come Josephine?
|
|
She had caught in the crowd
|
with the rain so loud
|
that you couldn't hear your up and down
|
heart beat now
|
did you come back to New Hampshire to stay?
|
did they catch you at the border
|
and send you to back down?
|
should I give up and stop lookin around
|
but im still waitin for this day
|
|
Josephine, Josephine
|
|
Josephine, Josephine, Josephine
|
How come you aint no where to be seen
|
Josephine, Josephine, Josephine
|
How come, how come Josephine?
|
|
Josephine the fair
|
Josephine the fair
|
Josephine the fair
|
Josephine the fair
|
