(Verlaine)
Oh, sure i remember rosie who could
Forget she was working for sammy the fool wasn't
She some kind of counterfeit business down in Tucson
I think so
Say who's the paintjob in the pink silk sack she sure
Is looking well informed rosie took my sleeve said:
Leave that alonethat young thing ain't never been born
She said shut up, listen at 4 am I'll be back in San
Antone at 4th and 12th street mister I don't want to
Leave alone Rosie told me never forget, when they get
Spiteful they always do their best So are we over,
Are we across or are we double once again Rosie told
Me it's tictactoe she just gotta collect her dividends
She said shut up listen at 4 am I'll back in San
Antone
Rosie Rosie the violets bloom no curtains hanging
In her room she told me: carrying all this stuff around just
Keeps me out of place one more drop and I'm thru
Rosie Rosie l remember well Just one more drop she said
One more drop
