Cowboy Josephine Beyond Compare written by Tommy Talton
[tab]
Only Josephine beyond compare to judge her just ain t fair[/tab]
[tab]
The only dream that s really there she sits with shinning hair[/tab]
[tab]
I found her waiting there[/tab]
[tab]
I thought we all knew her like we all know rain and pain[/tab]
[tab]
I then hear voices talking of their right to being vain[/tab]
[tab]
She said they don t know what they re saying[/tab]
[tab]
For they speak without no thought and if they re words had been[/tab]
confined
[tab]
These men could not be taught she s so true[/tab]
[tab]
Only Josephine beyond compare to judge her just ain t fair[/tab]
[tab]
The only dream that s really there she sits with shinning hair[/tab]
[tab]
I found her waiting there[/tab]
[tab]
To speak in terms of true & false she can t be understood[/tab]
[tab]
And yet I find myself describing her in terms of good[/tab]
[tab]
I stood to sing a song to her and then she made me see[/tab]
[tab]
There is no song to sing to her that is not sung to me[/tab]
[tab]
It s her you long to be[/tab]
[tab]
Only Josephine beyond compare to judge her just ain t fair[/tab]
[tab]
The only dream that s really there she sits with shinning hair[/tab]
[tab]
I found her waiting there[/tab]
[tab]
Josephine is crying and she s laughing while she does[/tab]
[tab]
No one needs to tell her who she is or who she was[/tab]
[tab]
She s been thru it all and you can see it in her eyes[/tab]
[tab]
And no one can tell Josephine that she don t realize[/tab]
[tab]
You know she does[/tab]
[tab]
Only Josephine beyond compare to judge her just ain t fair[/tab]
[tab]
The only dream that s really there she sits with shinning hair[/tab]
[tab]
I found her waiting there[/tab]
