Ron Dante (Film Soundtrack) - 1967
The ballad Of Josie
A story to remember
A pretty girl, a sturdy girl
Made of solid timber
She set her sights and fought her fights
'Cause justice was her aim
And Arapaho County
Has never been the same
She didn't wear no fancy duds
And work like Jenny Mack
She faced a lot of danger
And still she never ran
For Josie had some ideals
And never did she lose 'em
And she also had some rough words
In case she had'a use 'em
The ballad Of Josie (The ballad of Josie)
A story to remember (A story to remember)
A pretty girl, a sturdy girl
Made of solid timber
She set her sights and fought her fights
'Cause justice was her aim
And Arapaho County
Has never been the same
The ballad of Josie
(The ballad of Josie)
A story to remember
(A story to remember)
The ballad of Josie
(The ballad of Josie)
