Jimmy got a six-string when he turned sixteen Josie grew up on the rich side of town He found himself beside her, she'd never seen one finer Josie always thought that Jimmy'd let her down She's trying to keep both feet on the ground
When the words come out all wrong, finds his comfort in a song Jimmy sits and waits for fate to take the wheel Josie went to college in search for higher knowledge Cause she can't stand the way that Jimmy feels The pleasures worth the pain if love is real
Chorus: So tell me how do you tell the one that you love That you're faced with no regrets No strings to tie you down if you run Do you follow your dreams, or the one that you dream of
He was always on the road so she traveled on her own West Virginia, Corpus Christi, to L.A. Jimmy wished that she had known how much he loved her so Josie's tender heart had always been that way Her tender heart had always been that way
So tell me how do you tell the one that you love That you're faced with no regrets No strings to tie you down if you run Do you follow your dreams, or the one that you dream of
Jimmy got a six string when he turned sixteen Josie grew up on the rich side of town.
