Josie's Reel
Friday night on the old town square, there's a squeezebox and a Fiddle there,
Music rings through the cool night air, at the midnight Jamboree.
Josie swings her gingham gown, twrirls the fellows 'round and 'round,
Do-see-doin' to a fiddle sound, but she's got eyeys for me, I know she has eyes for me.
Underneath that Georgia Moon, I took her hand for her favourite tune,
We felt love like the flowers bloom, her green eyes revealed,
An Angel with a step so neat, felt my heart skip a beat,
Just a workin' man with two left feet,
We danced to Josie's reel, we danced to Josie's reel.
I stood there by the bandstand, watched a stranger take her hand,
Not exactly what I planned, but I had a nifty scheme,
Slipped a twenty to the boys, said next song is a Ladie's choice choice,
Shoulda seen that girl rejoice, when she heard that fiddle ring, when she heard that squeezbox sing.
