Rosie
Rosie's crying down the telephone
Said she wants to spend some time alone
Now she's caught up in the combat zone
Searching for her white flag
She ran away didn't feed the cat
She said don't worry cus she's coming back
Best friend said she'd been feeling sad
Jonny didn't have a clue now
Johnny didn't have a clue now he's calling
Rosie won't talk about it
Rosie won't talk about it
She says that she's sleeping on it
She ain't coming home to Jonny tonight
She crawls into a lonely bar
She sees a cowboy with a blues guitar
Who sings about better days
That appeals to Rosie
She sinks another another with a peanut bowl
She watched the cowboy as he starts to roll
Gold Virginia from a worn out tin
That belonged to Grandpa
Jonny's calling again
Rosie won't talk about it
Rosie won't talk about it
She says that she's sleeping on it
She ain't coming home to Jonny tonight
No Rosie ain't coming home
Escapes to the shadows
She says that she's sleeping on it
She ain't coming home to Jonny tonight
Jonny sits he waits by the telephone
He's waiting for Rosie to call home
(Waiting for me to call)
The phone rings but it's just a cold call
And Rosie still ain't home
(No) Rosie still ain't home
Rosie won't talk about it
Rosie won't talk about it
She says that she's sleeping on it
She ain't coming home to Jonny tonight
No Rosie ain't coming home
Escapes to the shadows
She says that she's sleeping on it
She ain't coming home to Jonny tonight
Said she wants to spend some time alone
Now she's caught up in the combat zone
Searching for her white flag
She ran away didn't feed the cat
She said don't worry cus she's coming back
Best friend said she'd been feeling sad
Jonny didn't have a clue now
Johnny didn't have a clue now he's calling
Rosie won't talk about it
Rosie won't talk about it
She says that she's sleeping on it
She ain't coming home to Jonny tonight
She crawls into a lonely bar
She sees a cowboy with a blues guitar
Who sings about better days
That appeals to Rosie
She sinks another another with a peanut bowl
She watched the cowboy as he starts to roll
Gold Virginia from a worn out tin
That belonged to Grandpa
Jonny's calling again
Rosie won't talk about it
Rosie won't talk about it
She says that she's sleeping on it
She ain't coming home to Jonny tonight
No Rosie ain't coming home
Escapes to the shadows
She says that she's sleeping on it
She ain't coming home to Jonny tonight
Jonny sits he waits by the telephone
He's waiting for Rosie to call home
(Waiting for me to call)
The phone rings but it's just a cold call
And Rosie still ain't home
(No) Rosie still ain't home
Rosie won't talk about it
Rosie won't talk about it
She says that she's sleeping on it
She ain't coming home to Jonny tonight
No Rosie ain't coming home
Escapes to the shadows
She says that she's sleeping on it
She ain't coming home to Jonny tonight
