Josephine

Ease me down, Josephine You've got something that makes me want to stay Well you know I'll never lead you blind or astray Just ease me down, my sweet Josephine So take me out in the yard Lay me down at half past eight Roll me through your garden's vicar gate Trace your little body close to mine Ease me down, Josephine Got something that makes me want to stay Well you know I'll never lead you blind or astray So just ease me down, my sweet Josephine It's cigarettes and whiskey at dawn And apples and oranges at noon It's a summertime in the city, we're leaving soon I'm going to Carolina to rest my bones (Broken bones, weary bones, skinny bones) Ease me down, Josephine Yes you've got something that makes me want to stay You know I'd never lead you blind or astray So just ease me down, my sweet Josephine
