Dreamt I was back with the pirates and cats of my summerville
The girl in the alphabet shirt covered in dirt lives on the hill

Well, my sweet Josephine,
Are you still racing stray across the old stream?
My neighborhood queen
Are you still kissing cowboys that cry, Josephine?

She stole my grandmother's watch, a treasure to touch, to keep time to herself
Her mind was a very big house
We got lost there for hours until August fell

Well, my sweet Josephine,
Are you still racing stray across the old stream?
My neighborhood queen
Are you still kissing cowboys that cry, Josephine?

You say you're alright but Josie it's time
You gotta get your feet on the ground
But she says: "No, don't you see we have wings, it's the funniest thing, it's just no one knows."
No one knows, sweet Josephine...

Well, my sweet Josephine,
Are you still racing stray across the old stream?
My neighborhood queen
Are you still kissing cowboys that cry, Josephine?
