Josephine Were we born to lose Do we blame the stars Or do we get to choose
Was the deck so stacked that we had no chance Every single draw was a losin' hand
We're long way gone But we ain't dead yet
Josephine Can you lose your way If from the start You were led astray
Daddy's at the track placing one more bet
Momma's hanging on like the ash on her cigarette We're long way gone But we ain't dead yet
* Such a damn struggle just a livin' this life Doin' what we can 'cause we don't live twice
Josephine I've never seen you cry Underneath it all, are you screamin' why Why? Yeah
Josephine If in the end You can still Call me a friend
That's enough for me to have no regrets That we didn't do much, but we did our best
