Lyrics for Josephine

If I were Napoleon, you could be my Josephine We could go to drive-in films in my red convertible If I were Napoleon, I might be in magazines I'd write some science fiction - science fiction about you You could be my Josephine: just you and your chaperone Let you be my Josephine, Josephine If I were Napoleon, you could be my lady love Look into my soft blue eyes Run your fingers through my hair If I were Napoleon, you could be my turtle-dove Living out in Corsica in our summer cottages And you could be my Josephine and we could be Siamese twins Let you be my Josephine, Josephine
