I feel pretty good 
I feel all right 
And I've been thinkin' maybe 
I could spend the night 

I know you've been sad 
I know I've been bad 
But if you'd let me 
Make you ribbons from a paper bag 

Chorus: 
Josephine 
You're so good to me 
And I know 
It ain't easy 
Josephine 
You're so sweet 
You must taste just like sugar & tangerines 

I won't make a sound 
Sleep on the ground 
When you wake I will 
Drive you into town 
I missed your smile 
Your schoolgirl style 
But I never had much fun 
Maybe the very first mile 

(chorus) 

Don't you know 
I watched you walkin' home from school 
Your friends on the old playgrounds 
You never looked so down 
Won't you come and help me with these cuts of mine? 
I've disconnected my heart 
And cut myself on the wires 
Josephine 

I know I was wrong 
I knew all along 
But I got so far from my home 
I never thought I'd be so lonesome 

(chorus)
