Lyric Rosie

She was standing at the load-in
When the trucks rolled up
She was sniffing all around
Like a half grown female pup
She wasn t hard to talk to
Looked like she had nowhere to go
So I gave her my pass
So she could get in and see the show

Well I sat her down right next to me
And I got her a beer
While I mixed that sound on stage
So the band could hear
The more I watched her watch them play
The less I could think of to say
And when they walked off stage
The drummer swept that girl away

But Rosie you re all right -- you wear my ring
When you hold me tight -- Rosie that s my thing
When you turn out the light -- I ve got to hand it to me
Looks like it s me and you again tonight Rosie

Well I guess I might have known from the start
She d come for a star
Might have told my imagination not to run too far
Of all the times that I ve been burned
By now you d think I d have learned
That it s who you look like
Not who you are

But Rosie you re all right -- you wear my ring
When you hold me tight -- Rosie that s my thing
When you turn out the light -- I ve got to hand it to me
Looks like it s me and you again tonight Rosie
