Verse 
ROSIE LEFT HER HOME IN KANSAS CITY
TIME TO FIGURE OUT WHAT LIFE’S ABOUT
SUITCASE IN HER HAND
HER BOOTS RUSH THROUGH THE SAND
LEAVING MEMORIES OF YEARS BEHIND

Verse 
ROSIE WANTS TO SEE THE WORLD THAT’S OUT THERE
LEAVING EVERYTHING BEHIND SHE KNOWS
WALKING MEMORY LANE
SHE WON’T LOOK BACK AGAIN
FACING JUST WHATEVER COMES TO PASS

Chorus 
GOODBYE ROSIE
GOODBYE ROSIE
IT’S TIME TO SAY GOODBYE ALTHOUGH IT HURTS
BLOND CURLS IN A PONY TAIL
FACE STRAIGHT FORWARD IT’S TIME TO BAIL
GOODBYE ROSIE
GOODBYE GIRL

Verse 
WE NEVER SAW HER BACK IN KANSAS CITY
THE WORD IS THAT SHE MET A BANKERS’ SON
LIVING LIFE IN LUXURY
SHE’S THE SAME PURE BEAUTY
TURNING EVERY HEAD AS SHE WALKS BY

Chorus 
GOODBYE ROSIE
GOODBYE ROSIE
IT’S TIME TO SAY GOODBYE ALTHOUGH IT HURTS
BLOND CURLS IN A PONY TAIL
A SMILE THAT DAZZLES EVERY MALE
GOODBYE ROSIE
GOODBYE GIRL

Verse 
ONE DAY I LEFT MY HOME IN KANSAS CITY
I TRAVELLED TO THE TOWN WHERE SHE WOULD BE
BUT ALL I EVER FOUND
WAS A GRAVE THERE ON CHURCH GROUND
THE TOMBSTONE SAID IN LOVING MEMORY

Chorus
GOODBYE ROSIE
GOODBYE ROSIE
IT’S TIME TO SAY GOODBYE ALTHOUGH IT HURTS
BLOND CURLS IN A PONY TAIL
GOODBYE ROSIE IT’S TIME TO BAIL
GOODBYE ROSIE
GOODBYE GIRL
