Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show - Crazy Rosie lyrics

Your rating:


(Hazel Smith)



They called Rosie a lady until she had the baby

Then they called Rosie crazy, but she don't care at all

She sits rockin' and singin' and crazy Rosie's grinin'

Won't say what she's thinkin' she just sits and rocks a doll



When it comes to ladies, Rosie was first class

Her eighteen years had been the very best

'Til she met that traveller, she called darling James

Papa said he weren't fit to speak Rosie's name

Papa called him Jesse James



The talk was darling James took his own life

And Rosie thought she'd have her darling's child

But papa made plans to hide Rosie's shame

Papa sent her away to save the family name

Yeah he gave the son of Jesse James



They called Rosie a lady until she had the baby

Then they called Rosie crazy, but she don't care at all

She sits rockin' and singin' and crazy Rosie's grinin'

Won't say what she's thinkin' she just sits and rocks a doll



They say sometimes a tear comes to Rosie's eye

Though she never has spoke since they took her child

For twenty years of silence papa was to blame

'Cause Rosie knows that papa took the life of darling James

Papa saved the family name



They called Rosie a lady until she had the baby

Then they called Rosie crazy, but she don't care at all

She sits rockin' and singin' and crazy Rosie's grinin'

Won't say what she's thinkin' she just sits and rocks a doll



They called Rosie a lady until she had the baby

Then they called Rosie crazy, but she don't care at all

She sits rockin' and singin' and crazy Rosie's grinin'

Won't say what she's thinkin' she just sits and rocks a doll



They called Rosie a lady until she had the baby..........
