lyrics

Don’t be mean Josephine
Blow a kiss my way
Cause Summer’s just a memory
On this October day
Kids are all gone off to school
To learn to read and write
Answer me sweet Josephine
And let me in tonight

Your Daddy is a miner
Who doesn’t care for song
A life of breathin’ black coal dust
Can bend and break the strong
Would he give his only girl
To a guitar pickin’ man
Who drinks his love like moonshine
Josie make him understand

Don’t be mean Josephine
Blow a kiss my way
Cause Summer’s just a memory
On this October day
Kids are all gone off to school
To learn to read and write
Answer me sweet Josephine
And let me in tonight

There’s nothin’ sure in life but death
On that much we’ll agree
But we could make the journey sweet
If you would come with me
I want to stand beside you
And walk the golden mile
Let it be me Sweet Josie girl
The one who makes you smile
