[Verse 1]
C           G            F         C     G
  Won’t you come out and play, Josephina?
C              G         F        C    G
  I missed you all yesterday, Josephina
F                             C            G
  Tell your boss you need the afternoon off
F                       C      G
  To go and visit a sick friend
F                           C           G     F
  You know it wouldn’t be a lie, not at all untrue
                       G            C G C G
‘Cause I’m down with a fever for you


[Verse 2]
C             G               F          C    G
  I love your sweet hip shake thing, Josephina
C            G            F         C    G
  The out-of-tune way you sing, Josephina
F                             C         G
  I love the light and dark inside your eyes
F                       C       G
  And the waves of your laughter
F                                C                G          F
  I love your sudden clutch that says, "Oh, baby, put on the brake"
                 G              C    G C G
Just before your body starts to shake


[Verse 3]
C        G           F       C    G
  To the market I’ll go, Josephina
C                G           F         C    G
  Buy some fresh fish for us both, Josephina
F                         C       G
  I’m gonna cook you up a red hot meal
F                       C     G
  We’ll eat it on the verandah
F                              C             G      F
  And later on we’ll play some old sweet and ragged tunes
                      G            C    G   C G C G
  And dance under the light of the moon, hey


[Verse 4]
C            G          F         C    G
  I’ll get a job really soon, Josephina
C                        G          F       C    G
  I know that’s what you want me to do, Josephina
F                             C          G
  I’ll save my money and I’ll buy an old car
F                         C      G
  We’ll head on up to the islands
F                               C             G
  I hear they’re taking lots of people on all summer long
F                               G       C   G C G
  And when it’s over we’ll keep moving along


[Verse 5]
C           G         F         C    G
  Won’t you come over here, Josephina?
C                   G                F         C    G
  This old world is good when you’re near, Josephina
F                            C        G
  I know some people say you should beware
F                     C          G
  I’m a ne’er-do-well time waster
F                        C              G        F
  But I know your mother likes me and I like her too
                       G           C G C G C G
Oh, she’s the spitting image of you


[Verse 6]
C           G            F         C     G
  Won’t you come out and play, Josephina?
C              G         F        C     G
  I missed you all yesterday, Josephina
C            G            F         C     G   C G C
  I love the way that you sway, Josephina
