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
