Song - Joshua
D
Well a good ways down the railroad track
G
There was this little old rundown shack
A
And in it lived a man I'd never seen
D
Folks said he was a mean and a vicious man
G
And you better not set foot on his land
A D
I didn't think nobody could be that mean
D
So I took me out walking down the railroad track
G
I was a-gonna go down to that little old shack
A D
And just find out if all them things I'd heard was true
There was a big black dog laying out in the yard
G
And it growled at me and I swallowed hard
A D
And I heard somebody say well who are you
Oh and there he stood in the door of that shack
G
His beard and his hair was long and black
A D
And he was the biggest man I'd ever seen
When he spoke his voice was low and deep
G
But he just didn't frighten me
A D
'Cause somehow I just knew he wasn't mean
He said what you doing snooping 'round my place
G
And I saw a smile come across his face
A
So I smiled back and I told him who I was
D
He said come on in and pull you up a chair
G
You might as well since you already here
A D
And he said you can call me Joshua
G D
Joshua Joshua
A D
Whatcha doing living here all alone
G D
Joshua Joshua
A D
Ain't you got nobody to call your own
A D
No no no no
D
We talked 'til the sun was clean out of sight
G
And we still talking when it come daylight
A
And there was just so much we had to say hey
D
I'd spent my life in an orphan's home
G
And just like him I was all alone
A D
So I said yeah when he asked if I'd stay
Oh we grew closer as time went on
G
And that little old shack it was a happy home
A
And we just couldn't help but fall in love
D
That big black dog and that little old shack
G
Sitting down by the railroad track
A D
It's plenty good enough for me and Joshua
G D
Joshua Joshua
A D
Why you're just what I've been looking for
G D
Joshua Joshua
A D
You ain't gonna be lonesome anymore
A

A G D
Me and Joshua
