Ride On Josephone - Bo Diddley

Ride on Josephine, ride on

Ride on Josephine, you got a running machine

A-baby, baby, ride on Josephine, baby ride on

Well, Josephine driving a hot rod Ford

Twin carburator will eat up the road

Twin exhaust sticking out the rear

Something that will really take away from here

Josephine’s Ford begin to run hot

She tried to trade it in at a used car lot

The man couldn’t believe his natural eyes

When she pulled it in to his drive

Ride on, Josephine, ride on

Say, Josephine!

(Ride on Josephine, ride on)

Josephine, child yoUR tank is leaking gas!

(Ride on Josephine, ride on)

Say what?

Baby, you better shut up and come on ride with me

Ye-aah, you better ride with me

You say I better mind my business?

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

You got business baby, you, you good business!

I just lo-oo-oo-ve good business!

(it's show good)

(Oh, yeah)

You say, what kind of car I driving?

(maroon '40 Ford)

Well, I-I'm a

I’m driving a '48 Cadillac

With Thunderbird wings

Telling you baby, that’s a running thing

I got wings that’ll open

And get her in the air

I think I can take it away from here

A-ride on Josephine, ride on

Ride on, Josephine, ride on

Ride on Josephine

Child, you got a running machine

A-baby, baby, ride on Josephine, baby ride on

Well, I bl, bl, believe you, baby

Because you-a, you-a, you aren’t, been flagged

He-he

I’m going

Goodbye!
