Skeeter Davis - Joshua lyrics

Your rating:

Well the good ways down the railroad track there was a little old rundown shack

And in it lived a man I'd never seen

Folks said he was a mean and vicious man and you better not set foot on his land

But I didn't think nobody could be that mean

So I took me a walking down the railroad track

I was gonna go down to that little old shack

And just find out if all them things I heard was true

There was a big black dog a lying in the yard

And he growled at me and I swallowed hard

And I heard somebody say well who are you

Oh there he stood in the door of his shack

With beer in his hand and with hair long and black

He was the biggest man I'd ever seen

When he spoke his voice was low and mean

But he just didn't frighten me cause somehow I just knew he wasn't mean

He said what you doing snoopin' round my place and I saw a smile come across his face

So I smiled back and I told him who I was

He said come on in and pull you up a chair

You might as well cause you're already here and he said you call me Joshua

Joshua Joshua what you doing living all alone

Joshua Joshua ain't you got nobody to call your own



We talked till the sun went out of sight

And we was still talkin' when it turned daylight

Cause there was just so much we had to say

Now I'd spend my life in an orphan's home and just like him I was all alone

So I said yeah when he asked me if I'd stay

Well we grew closer as time went on and that little old shack was a happy home

And we just couldn't help but fall in love

And that big black dog and that little old shack

A sittin' down there by the railroad track

Was plenty good enough for me and Joshua

Joshua Joshua why you're just what I been looking for

Joshua Joshua we ain't gonna be lonely anymore (yodel)

(It just sounds like Dolly doesn't it)

It's just story of me and Joshua real love story me and Joshua me and Joshua
