Josephine You'd best stay down You're in for a hell of a ride back home Got a lock on you now Gotta keep your back to the background Enough whiskey to drown the butterflies And the last of my common sense Back on the road Pumped full of holes, but I'm not gonna die Got a smoking gun Trained on a spot between your eyes Josephine, been down so long you can't get back up Josephine, got no one to blame for your bad luck Josephine Josephine Been beat like a dog Been to hell and back, stopped by every town Got a lot on my mind But the patterns are clear and loud
