Joseph & Joe

This song was first released on the john denver album. it is the only album it has been released on.



Joseph & joe

The priest and the cowboy

The places they've been to

The places they're in

For a time between storms

On the side of a mountain

With another man's family

A family of friends



Joseph can give you

The keys to the kingdom

He'll put you in touch with

The spirit of man

Joe love the desert

But lives in the mountains

His closest companion

A left-handed man



Where do you go

If you've got no way to get there

Where do you go

How do you know

If you've never ever been there

How do you know

Tell me how do you know



Joseph i lost you

In some other city

Our paths and our crossing

Were way out of time

Joe how the seasons

Have drifted between us

Or is it your vision

Much greater then mine



Take head of the darkness

Which gathers around us

A fire that consumes us

Forever to burn

Then look to the surf

For our father is with us

Our mother will teach us

What we need to learn



Where do you go

If you've got no way to get there

Where do you go

How do you know

If you've never ever been there

How do you know

Tell me how do you know



Tell me where do you go

If you've got no way to get there

Where do you go

How do you know

If you've never ever been there

How do you know

Tell me how do you know
