歌词
[Verse 1]
Oh, yeah, yeah, I remember Rosie, sure
Who could forget?
She was working for Sammy the fool, wasn't she?
Some kind of counterfeit business, Tucson?
[Verse 2]
Say, who's the paint job in the pink silk sack?
She sure be looking well informed
Rosie pulled my sleeve, she said, "Leave that alone
That young thing ain't yet been born," she said, "Shut up, listen
[Verse 3]
At 4 a.m. I'll be back in San Antone
At 4th and 12th street, mister, I don't leave alone"
Rosie told me, "Never forget
When they get spiteful, they always do their best"
[Verse 4]
So are we over, are we across
Or are we double once again?
Rosie told me, "It's tic-tac-toe"
She just gotta collect her dividends, she said, "Shut up, listen
[Verse 5]
At 4 a.m. I'll be back in San Antone
At 4th and 12th street, mister, I don't leave alone"
Rosie, Rosie, the violets bloom
No curtains hanging in her room, she told me
[Verse 6]
"Carrying all this stuff around just keeps me out of place
One more drop and I'm through
I'm through"
[Verse 7]
"At 4 a.m. I'll be back in San Antone
At 4th and 12th street, mister, I don't leave alone"
Rosie, Rosie, I remember well
[Verse 8]
"Just one more drop," she said
Just one more drop
[Verse 9]
At 4 a.m. I'll be back in San Antone
At 4th and 12th street, mister, I don't leave alone
Rosie, Rosie, the violets bloom
No curtains hanging in her room
