| I had a friend called Joe
|
| When friends were hard to find
|
| He had a restless soul
|
| With something on his mind
|
| One day I went away
|
| And when returned to the scene
|
| Not to find restless Joe, no
|
| But to find Josephine
|
| I asked her what her game was
|
| She said Joe had left the scene
|
| I asked her what her name was
|
| She said, they call me Josephine
|
| Josephine
|
| Josephine
|
| It took a while to click
|
| But then I got the gist
|
| The girl by my side
|
| Was the guy I’d missed
|
| I took her for a beer
|
| To talk about old times
|
| Just to find the beer, dear
|
| Was now a sweet white wine
|
| I asked her what her game was
|
| She said Joe had left the scene
|
| I asked her what her name was
|
| She said they call me Josephine
|
| Josephine
|
| Josephine
|
| Josephine
|
| So we talked all night
|
| And we just can’t pretend
|
| Although I lost old Joe, yo
|
| I’ve got a new girlfriend
|
| I asked her what her game was
|
| She said Joe had left the scene
|
| I asked her what her name was
|
| She said they call me Josephine
|
| I asked her what her game was
|
| She said Joe had left the scene
|
| I asked her what her name was
|
| She said they call me Josephine
|
| Josephine
|
| Josephine
|
| Josephine |
