Artist/Band: Kris Kristofferson
Lyrics for Song: Josie
Lyrics for Album: All Time Greatest Hits [Varese Sarabande] [2001]



(Kris Kristofferson)



I've been chasin' after Josie since the day I could run

Even though I didn't know it at a time

And I followed her from Texas till she found me undone

Just a jump ahead of what I'd left behind.



She was proud of her young body as a body could be

On her way to be a woman of the world

And I still can see her smiling as she gave it to me

Lookin' like a lonesome little girl.



Josie is it true that you've grown harder than your years

Sellin' them your sadness on the street

How much did you lose between the laughter and the tears

Gettin' back the bitter for the sweet.



Well, she loved me back to livin' at a time I was lost

With the closest thing to love I've ever known

And she led me to some bridges I was burning to cross

Then she went and burned some bridges of her own.



Now the road's a little colder every time that I leave

For another empty place I've never been

And I don't suppose it's likely that she's looking for me

But someday I'll maybe chase her down again.



Josie is it true that you've grown harder than your years

Sellin' them your sadness on the street

How much did you lose between the laughter and the tears

Gettin' back the bitter for the sweet...
