lyrics

I met her at the airport, she was holding her banjo
I was so excited, I was holding my mandolin
We were going to Alaska, for the summertime
One skinny city boy and a girl named Jocelyn

We landed in a new world, so fresh and green
So far away from LA and happy to be

Well, we were Buddy-Buddy
We were very good pals
Just like a sister
but I lost her somehow

Most of the time we played music, most of the time we joked around
She would sing so sweetly it would lift me off the ground
We stayed in the mountains where we didn’t need much money
We would bathe in the river when ours were days were sunny

She fell in love with a mountain man
and I went my own way
We saw each other once in awhile
But it wasn't the same
She fell in love with a mountain man
and I went my own way
Back to La
And she stayed

Well I got a message from her just the other day
First time in two years she had something to say
She’s a real musician now and she’s got her own show
She’s coming to my town and wants me to go

Well we were buddy-buddy
We were good pals
I’m hoping when I see her
We can get it back somehow
