JA:
|
I was never crazy for flowers
|
I confess that nothing left me colder.
|
I could watch a daisy for hours
|
and all i'd feel was several hours older.
|
|
Lilacs or lilies,
|
anything you please
|
all that they did was make me shrug or sneeze.
|
|
But now i love each blossom that i see
|
for a lovely little rose loves me.
|
|
Now my life is Rosie,
|
since i found my Rosie.
|
With a girl like rosie
|
how could i be blue?
|
|
Hand in hand we'll mosey
|
Me and little Rosie.
|
We will be so cozy
|
by a fire built for two.
|
|
Oh i once heard a poem that goes
|
A rose is a rose is a rose.
|
But i don't agree
|
Take it from me,
|
There's one rose sweeter than any that grows
|
|
That's my Rosie.
|
I'm so glad you chose me.
|
Life is one, sweet, beautiful song
|
to me.
|
|
JA: Now my life is Rosie
|
VW: Oh, we'll be happy I know.
|
JA: Since I found my Rosie.
|
VW: Off to the preacher we'll go.
|
JA: With a girl like ROsie
|
VW: So how could we
|
JA: How could I be blue?
|
VW: Be blue?
|
|
VW: Oh we'll have us a home out west.
|
A nice, little split, level nest.
|
And in every room, roses in bloom
|
JA: but there's one Rose sweeter than all of the rest.
|
|
JA: And that's my Rosie
|
|
Both:
|
I'm so glad you chose me.
|
Life is one, sweet, beautiful song.
|
If love is right, then, what could be wrong?
|
Life is one, sweet, beautiful song to me.
