Rosie watch doin' in this low class joint
Dancin' in the dark all day
You used to be the darlin'
Of your high school scene
Now you put your love on display
Sweaty hands hand you up a dollar bill
Hungry eyes never seem to get their fill
I used to watch you walkin' down the hall
Remember when I used to call your name 

Rosie, Rosie I wanna take you away
Rosie, Rosie I'm gonna make you mine someday

Rosie I went with you for that rose tattoo, you promised no one else would see 
And I would wait to drive you home from dancing school. 
Remember when you danced just for me 
Our love was deeper then the night was long
But things just didn't work out like our favorite song
Baby don?t you know we couldve had it all. 
Rosie do you see me when you hear them call your name 

Rosie, Rosie I wanna take you away
Rosie, Rosie I'm gonna make you mine someday
Rosie, Rosie 

Promises are promised, some are meant to keep. 
Some are meant to break because You're in too deep 
I wish Id never seen this place before 
Because it kills me when I hear them call your name--ROSIE 

Rosie, Rosie, I wanna take you away. 
Rosie, Rosie, Im gonna make you mine someday. 
Rosie, Rosie
