Rosie Lyrics

(Sambora, J Bon Jovi, Child, Warren)

Rosie whatc'ya doin' in this low class joint
Dancin' in the dark all day
You used to be the darlin' of your high school scene
Now you put your love on display
Sweaty hands hand you up a dollar bill
Hungry eyes never seem to get their fill
Oh, oh... I used to watch you walkin' down the hall
Remember when I used to call your name

Rosie, Rosie -I wanna take you away
Rosie, Rosie -I'm gonna make you mine someday

Rosie, I went with you for that rose tattoo
You promised no one else would see
And I would wait to drive you home from dancin' school
Remember when you danced just for me
Our love was deeper than the night was long
But things just didn't work out like our favorite song
Baby, don't you know we could have had it all?
Rosie do you see me when you hear them call your name?

Rosie, Rosie -I wanna take you away
Rosie, Rosie -I'm gonna make you mine someday

Oh, oh, oh! (oh, oh, oh!)
Yeah, yeah, yeah! (yeah, yeah, yeah!)
Wooow, ow... Rosie (bis)

[guitar solo]

Promises are promised, some are meant to keep
Some are meant to breaking 'cause you're in too deep
I wish I'd never seen this place before
Because it kills me when I hear them call your name
[all] Rosie!

Rosie, Rosie -I wanna take you away
Rosie, Rosie -I'm gonna make you mine someday

Oh, oh, oh! (oh, oh, oh!)
Yeah, yeah, yeah! (yeah, yeah, yeah!)
Wooow, ow... Rosie (bis)

Uh... Yeah
Rosie, baby
