A letra:
Josie, I wont
fail ya,
I wont fail you have no fear,
Josie, I wont fail ya,
Give me one more chance to be as near.
The meadows they are bursting
the yellow corn is in your hands,
and with the night comes sorrow
as the tide of dawn slips on the land.
The long breezes are blowing
all down the sky into my face,
I've a worried kind of feelin
that my time has come and gone to waste.
I love you darling Josie,
the trees of pine they grow so tall,
how can you come to love me
when you didn't love me at all.
Josie, I wont fail ya,
I wont fail you have no fear,
Josie I wont fail ya
Give me one more chance to be as near.
My Josie looks a child now
as she lies beyond my breast,
in the night I think about her
in the day I get no rest.
I cut me a young pine cone
And gave it to the river deep,
It sailed way by your window
where you lay so long in sleep.
God bless you darling Josie
with your sparkling eyes so bright and clear,
Josie, I wont fail you have no fear,
Josie, I wont fail ya
Give me one more chance to be as near.
I wont fail you have no fear,
Josie, I wont fail ya,
Give me one more chance to be as near.
The meadows they are bursting
the yellow corn is in your hands,
and with the night comes sorrow
as the tide of dawn slips on the land.
The long breezes are blowing
all down the sky into my face,
I've a worried kind of feelin
that my time has come and gone to waste.
I love you darling Josie,
the trees of pine they grow so tall,
how can you come to love me
when you didn't love me at all.
Josie, I wont fail ya,
I wont fail you have no fear,
Josie I wont fail ya
Give me one more chance to be as near.
My Josie looks a child now
as she lies beyond my breast,
in the night I think about her
in the day I get no rest.
I cut me a young pine cone
And gave it to the river deep,
It sailed way by your window
where you lay so long in sleep.
God bless you darling Josie
with your sparkling eyes so bright and clear,
Josie, I wont fail you have no fear,
Josie, I wont fail ya
Give me one more chance to be as near.
