Lyrics Ride on Josephine - Joe Cocker

Ride on Josephine, ride on
Ride on Josephine, ride on
Oh ride on Josephine, ya' got a runnin' machine
Oh ride on Josephine, ride on
Well, Josephine's drivin' a hot rod Ford
Twin carburetors, gonna eat up the road
Twin exhausts takin' up the rear
Some a'that'll really take away from here
Ride on Josephine, ride on
Ride on Josephine, ride on
Oh, ride on Josephine, ya' got a runnin' machine
Oh, ride on Josephine, ride on
Well, now Josephine's Ford began to run hot
She tried to trade it in down the used car lot
The man couldn't believe his natural eyes
When she pulled it up into his drive
Ride on Josephine, ride on
Ride on Josephine, ride on
Ride on Josephine, ya' got a runnin' machine
Oh ride on Josephine, ride on
Well, Josephine, Josephine, ma- will you come up here with me
I gonna tell you your tank is leakin' gas
And I don't look like it gonna last
You say what?
You, you tell me to mind my own business?
Uh, can't do that baby because my business is your business
And your business is my business
And your business is good business
And I love good businesses
You ask me
You-you-you-you ask me what kind of car am I drivin'?
Well, I'm drivin' a '48 Cadillac with thunderbird wings
I'm tellin' ya' baby it's a runnin' thing
I could reach a groove a'baby ... get a gear
I think I could take it a'right outta here
Ride on Josephine, ride on
Ride on Josephine, ride on
Oh ride on Josephine, ya' got a runnin' machine
Oh ride on Josephine, ride on
Ah show me
Ah Josephine
