Paper Rosie - The Osborne Brothers[00:00:00]
The sun goes down in Calvin county[00:00:10]
Neon lights from an old beer sign[00:00:18]
Shown through the window[00:00:26]
Out on the sidewalk[00:00:29]
As I walked in to pass the time[00:00:34]
I looked around sat down at a table[00:00:42]
Ordered beef on rye and a glass of wine[00:00:49]
And through the door came a little old lady[00:00:57]
She was selling paper roses[00:01:06]
And they only cost a dime[00:01:10]
Paper Rosie paper Rosie[00:01:15]
She sold you paper roses[00:01:24]
But they only cost a dime[00:01:28]
Silver hair that's lost its gold[00:01:33]
Trembling hand as she passed the rose[00:01:41]
Red Crepe paper made nature's bouquet[00:01:49]
Help a little old lady buy a rose today[00:01:57]
I took the rose from her trembling hand[00:02:05]
With eyes of age she smiled[00:02:13]
And walked away[00:02:17]
Like a breath of spring[00:02:21]
I could smell the rose[00:02:25]
It came alive and I heard her say[00:02:29]
Paper Rosie pretty Rosie[00:02:37]
They're only made of paper[00:02:46]
But they only cost a dime[00:02:50]
I went to look for her outside[00:03:05]
A spray of roses lay by her side[00:03:13]
The sky lit up and the choir sang[00:03:21]
A thousand voices as the church bells rang[00:03:29]
They sang Rosie paper Rosie[00:03:38]
She sold you paper roses[00:03:46]
But they only cost a dime[00:03:50]
Paper Rosie Paper Rosie[00:03:56]
She sold you paper roses[00:04:04]
But they only cost a dime[00:04:08]
