Skeeter Davis Joshua Lyrics:
Well the good ways down the railroad track there
was a little old rundown shack And in it lived a
man I'd never seen Folks said he was a mean and
vicious man and you better not set foot on his
land But I didn't think nobody could be that mean
So I took me a walking down the railroad track I
was gonna go down to that little old shack And
just find out if all them things I heard was true
There was a big black dog a lying in the yard And
he growled at me and I swallowed hard And I heard
somebody say well who are you Oh there he stood in
the door of his shack With beer in his hand and
with hair long and black He was the biggest man
I'd ever seen When he spoke his voice was low and
mean But he just didn't frighten me cause somehow
I just knew he wasn't mean He said what you doing
snoopin' round my place and I saw a smile come

across his face So I smiled back and I told him
who I was He said come on in and pull you up a
chair You might as well cause you're already here
and he said you call me Joshua Joshua Joshua what
you doing living all alone Joshua Joshua ain't you
got nobody to call your own

We talked till the sun went out of sight And we
was still talkin' when it turned daylight Cause
there was just so much we had to say Now I'd spend
my life in an orphan's home and just like him I
was all alone So I said yeah when he asked me if
I'd stay Well we grew closer as time went on and
that little old shack was a happy home And we just
couldn't help but fall in love And that big black
dog and that little old shack A sittin' down there
by the railroad track Was plenty good enough for
me and Joshua Joshua Joshua why you're just what I
been looking for Joshua Joshua we ain't gonna be
lonely anymore (yodel) (It just sounds like Dolly
doesn't it) It's just story of me and Joshua real
love story me and Joshua me and Joshua
