Josie Lyrics

Yeah, my girlfriend takes me home when I'm too drunk to drive
And she doesn't get all jealous when I hang out with the guys
She laughs at my dumb jokes when no one does
She brings me mexican food from Sombrero's just because
(Yeah, just because)

And my girlfriend likes U.L. and D.H.C.
And she's so smart and independent, I don't think she needs me
Quite half as much as I know I need her
I wonder why there's not another guy that she'd prefer

And when I feel like giving up
Like my world is falling down

I show up at 3am
She's still up watching Vacation, and I
See her pretty face
It takes me away to a better place and


I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine


Yeah, my girlfriend takes collect calls from the road
And it doesn't seem to matter that I'm lacking in the bulge
She laughs at my dumb jokes when no one does
She brings me mexican food from Sombrero's just because

And when I feel like giving up
Like my world is falling down

I show up at 3am
She's still up watching Vacation, and I
See her pretty face
It takes me away to a better place and


I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine.
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine.
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine.
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine.

I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine.
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine.
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine.
I know that everything, know that everything, know that everything,
Everything's gonna be fine.

okay to answer everyones burning questions: who is josie?

Josie is a codename for his future wife at the time the song was written. They never wanted to put a real name into the song that way if something ever happened between the two of them then the song would still be cool and respectable and playable. if her real name were in the song then it would be wierd to ever play it again. personally i think this song is about his girlfriend at the time, and current wife because theyre still together now so she must be perfect for him and do all this stuff. besides he go into pretty good detail about what she does so it must be from personal experience.

does that answer all the questions?

"Josie" isn't his wife. He met Skye on the set of "all the small things". She was there with MTV as she worked for them at the time. Josie was written way before that. I think Marks wife must be better than who ever Josie was. They always look so happy in pictures and they have a beautiful son :)

This is one of my favourite songs by them! it's about what Mark would describe as his perfect girl. One of the reasons I love this song so much is because my boyfriend changed his screen name on ICQ to Josie's girlfriend :)
