It was Monday morning in heavy rain
When Josie went from our house, never back again
Out beyond the hillside where the cattle stand
With her recent lover holding her right hand
They both went out together in the Monday mist
She never saw it coming, waiting at his wrist
He struck her swiftly and she fell right down
Flowers grew around her a body never found
Whenever you`re walking out in the snow
Think of poor Josie all on her own
Wherever those flowers stand out unknown
Youll be steppin` on her gravestone
So tell me where is Josie and where`s she flown
You both went out together you`ve come back alone
You sit so sadly with a face so cold
You`re no more paler though than the life you stole
