Dolly Parton - Joshua

^CWell a good ways down the railroad track ^FThere was this little old rundown shack ^GAnd in it lived a man I'd never seen ^CFolks said he was a mean and a vicious man ^FAnd you better not set foot on his land ^GI didn't think nobody could be that ^Cmean ^CSo I took me out walking down the railroad track ^FI was a-gonna go down to that little old shack And just ^Gfind out if all them things I'd heard was ^Ctrue

And it ^Fgrowled at me and I swallowed hard And I ^Gheard somebody say well who are ^Cyou

His ^Fbeard and his hair was long and black And ^Ghe was the biggest man I'd ever ^Cseen

But ^Fhe just didn't frighten me 'Cause ^Gsomehow I just knew he wasn't ^Cmean

And ^FI saw a smile come across his face ^GSo I smiled back and I told him who I was ^CHe said come on in and pull you up a chair ^FYou might as well since you already here And ^Ghe said you can call me ^CJoshua

^FJoshua ^CJoshua ^GWhatcha doing living here ^Call alone ^FJoshua ^CJoshua ^GAin't you got nobody to ^Ccall your own No ^Gno no ^Cno

^CWe talked 'til the sun was clean out of sight And ^Fwe still talking when it come daylight And ^Gthere was just so much we had to say hey ^CI'd spent my life in an orphan's home And ^Fjust like him I was all alone So ^GI said yeah when he asked if I'd ^Cstay

And that ^Flittle old shack it was a happy home ^GAnd we just couldn't help but fall in love ^CThat big black dog and that little old shack ^FSitting down by the railroad track It's ^Gplenty good enough for me and ^CJoshua
