Josaphine - Dispatch

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
