Dolly Parton - Joshua Lyrics
Well a good ways down the railroad track
There was this little old rundown shack
And in it lived a man I'd never seen
Folks said he was a mean and a vicious man
And you better not set foot on his land
So I took me out walking down the railroad track
I was a-gonna go down to that little old shack
And just find out if all them things I'd heard was true
There was a big black dog laying out in the yard
And it growled at me and I swallowed hard
And I heard somebody say well who are you
Oh and there he stood in the door of that shack
His beard and his hair was long and black
And he was the biggest man I'd ever seen
When he spoke his voice was low and deep
'Cause somehow I just knew he wasn't mean
He said what you doing snooping 'round my place
And I saw a smile come across his face
So I smiled back and I told him who I was
He said come on in and pull you up a chair
You might as well since you already here
And he said you can call me Joshua
Joshua Joshua
Whatcha doing living here all alone
Joshua Joshua
Ain't you got nobody to call your own
No no no no
We talked 'til the sun was clean out of sight
And we still talking when it come daylight
And there was just so much we had to say hey
I'd spent my life in an orphan's home
And just like him I was all alone
So I said yeah when he asked if I'd stay
Oh we grew closer as time went on
And that little old shack it was a happy home
And we just couldn't help but fall in love
That big black dog and that little old shack
Sitting down by the railroad track
It's plenty good enough for me and Joshua
Joshua Joshua
Why you're just what I've been looking for
Joshua Joshua
You ain't gonna be lonesome anymore
No no
Yodel-a-he-ho
Me and Joshua
Me and Joshua
Me and Joshua yeah yeah
Me and Joshua

Dolly Parton Joshua Comments
Happy birthday dolly!! <3
At her best
A classy lady for sure. Today's artists do not compare
What's this "little lady" thing Porter Wagoner always seemed to say when introducing Dolly Parton? Was it seen as patronising and sexist by a 1960s/70s country TV audience? Was it a kind of compliment back then? Did Porter Wagoner always talk like that? Was he expected to talk like that?
I've only ever seen Porter Wagoner on Dolly Parton YouTube clips, etc so I wouldn't know.
PS I love Dolly's singing BTW and I love that song... We used to have her "Joshua" album when I was little. It was so good I thought it was a greatest hits package... a really good record.
Wow, so hard to believe she was on the Porter Wagoner show. That's so long ago, but she's still here. A true legend.
It's strange how less artist use the guitar that was playing to use it in today music,maybe there it's to country.
anfeild8 what?
I never noticed that front tooth gap before.
"That's no wig... It's a space station." - Obi-Wan Kenobi
Don't you just LIVE for her hair! I vow in this life, if only once, my hair will be teased up that big!
Wow she’s so young here! She actually looks so much like *gulp*... Miley Cyrus. 💆🏼♀️ but it’s true!! Lol. Like, her eyebrows and eyes and nose and even mouth lol. Anyone else???
Love it, I remember seeing for the 1st time and hollering,,,,,Yes, yes go Dolly.
She wrote or co wrote 3000 songs!
She ain't the dumb blonde bimbo that I thought she was.
She was the greatest thing that ever lived to a 6 yr. old little girl in 1971
He looked at you & smiled?
Well who in the world could look at you and not smile a smile of gladness? What a gift Dolly Parton is to our culture & to our country. Her happy smile is medicine that is superior to all of the apothecary's tinctures and opiates
Handy that her house is just there on the side
The cadence of this song has a Johnny Cash - like style! Did he co write any songs with Dolly?
Yeah, funny, it reminded me of A Boy Named Sue.
If you say there's anything fake about Dolly, eff you.
Thank you Dolly. Love that song.
Wow!!! 😮😮😮😍🤩😍😍🤩😍
So much Johnny Cash in this song.
That's OG Hannah Montana right there
Dolly could sing about a faulty tumble dryer and I'd still follow her to the ends of the earth.
Love ya Dolly.!!🎤🎸🎸🎶🎶🎶
It's Myley sirus
The women are not that way no more now there fat and dirty
Well a good ways down the railroad track

When he spoke his voice was low and deep
But he just didn't frighten me
'Cause somehow…
Love Dolly - She was cute, talented and sexy and she could RAP!

Me and Joshua
Their outfits are amazing!!!
My crush is called Joshua and I clicked on this because:
1. I love Dolly Parton
2. I love Josh >\\\\< 😂 cringe much
A great voice, story teller and talent, so hard to come by now a days.
God blessed you.. you have lifted my spirits higher just by listening and loving your music. I'm your no.1 fan x I think
sure do miss old variety series like The Porter Wagoner Show , Buck Owens and his Buckaroos, Hee Haw and more recently The Marty Stuart Show (which shared the same spirit and love for genuine country and western music) , and would love to see Marty bring it back featuring the living legends as Willie and Dolly to Jessie Colter, Dwight Yoakam , Alan Jackson and Steve Earle plus the new breed of genuine country- artists like Sturgill Simpson,Tyler Childers, Joshua Hedley ,Colter Wall, Cody Jinks, Mo Pitney, Lydia Loveless, Billy Strings, Molly Tuttle, Whitey Morgan And The 78's, Nikki Lane -even if it was exclusively an internet series I'd 100% support that with a subscription or Patreon etc...
I love her eyes
Her raw voice is so beautiful!
The true queen of country.
Radiantly beautiful.
she was hot, unrecognizable aging face, due to all her plastic surgery, but the her voice still there
she's cute and a sweet voice. long live Dolly.

I want to shack up with Joshua! Dolly admits she swallowed hard 😳😳😳💪
Hey that's my name 😍😍😍
An actual drag queen, i love her so much
2:43 is so happy and effortless.
They just don't make em like they used to!!
Try playing this at 1.5x it’s insane!!
Would love to see a pic of the Joshua she is singing about!
I always think of a bigger Keanu Reeves lol
So beautiful
She looks just like jewel here
Does anyone know what year this was? 😊
My hubby
TIL that Dolly Parton invented rap.
1 million views!
Wow her face looks so different here 😮 she's so talented.
Надежда Кадышева — вариант.
Aquanet hairspray !
Dolly the story teller !
A bal of talent, she must have worked so hard to stay at number 1, Im not a country fan but she is different
i can listen a resemblance between joshua and johnny cash's "boy named sue". the rythm of the words i think.
Beautiful.
best female performer of all time
Stunning Woman ❤️
She was only 25
Effortless amazing singing.
What a voice!!!
have you ever seen a woman rock a massive wig so hard
Man called sue? Or this. Both sound so similar. Not a criticism just a thought.
Dwight Yoakam
My favorite Dolly song. . .made even better with the Wagonmasters backing her up!
I love all her songs and I love her she is so pretty
wow, her hair. is it silver? is it real lol?
That's a big, wonderful wig
she writes, arranges and sings!!!! that is called a TRUE ARTIST!!!!

Well a good way down the rail-road track,
There was this little old run down shack
And in it lived a man I'd never se-e-e-een
Folk said he was a mean and a vicious man
And you'd better not set foot on his land
But I didn't think nobody could be that mean
So I took me out walking down the rail-road track
I was gonna go down to that little old shack
An' just find out if all them things I'd heard was true
There was a big black dog laying out in the yard
And he growled at me and I swallowed hard
And I heard somebody say" well, who are you?"
Ooh and there he stood in the door of that shack
And his beard and his hair was long and black
And he was the biggest man I ever seen
when he spoke his voice was low and deep
but he just didnt frighten me
cause somehow i just knew he wasnt mean
he said " what yuh doing snooping round my place"
and i saw a smile come across his face
so i smiled back and i told him who i was
He said " come on in, pull you up a chair,
You might as well since you're already here"
And he said " you can call me joshua"
joshua joshua what you doing living here all alone
joshua joshua aint you got nobody to call your own
no no no no
we talked till the sun was clean out of sight
and we still talked when it come daylight
there was just so much we had to say
i spent my life in an orphans home
and just like him i was all alone
so i said"yeah" when he asked if i'd stay
ooh we grew close as time went on
and that little ole shack it was a happy home
and we just couldn't help but fall in love
that big black dog and that little ole shack
sitting down by the railroad track
its plenty good enough for me and joshua
joshua joshua why your just what i've been a looking for
joshua joshua you aint gonna be lonesome anymore
So here we are talking of 47 years ago. I love you Dolly.
She's always had the nicest smile that always gives people a chance.
Everything gold and brilliants to you
I remember a man who could have been Joshua! I’m thankful for the experience.
Poor Joshua, how did you fuck that up? Did she leave you for Burt Reynolds or Kenny Rogers?
No man on earth would tell dolly to leave. God himself squirts at just one look.
Dolly is the most beautiful thing that God made, i wish i can meet her once before i leave this lonely world that hates me so much.
